OK, Y’all...Should I Hang My Head In Shame?

For the first time in over 50 years I’m not cooking or contributing to Thanksgiving Dinner! I ordered the whole deal from Cracker Barrel...even the iced tea! My grandson is visiting from Florida and we’ll pick up the fixin’s tomorrow. I just have to heat it Thanksgiving Day. I do think I went a little overboard as this meal feeds up to ten...we are just three. 🙇‍♀️

He and I are watching superhero and sci-fi movies while he’s here. My husband cares for neither and at my age I’m still a Trekkie. We just finished Terminator 2:Judgement Day, the best of the Terminator movies. Grandson tells me there is a version with alternate endings so I ordered the Terminator Anthology Collector’s Edition which includes 5 discs....all the movies. The Terminator 2 is the Skynet version. We’ve started the Spiderman series then on to Superman & Batman! Yay! I have someone who will watch with me 2 of my favorite movie genres.☺️

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all! And please keep in our prayers the folks who have suffered greatly in the California fires.😇Dewey would want us to do so.

Yes, you should hang your head in shame! The first Terminator is the better film. ;)

Enjoy. Sounds like you will have plenty of leftovers.

You would not believe how much food was in the cardboard tote box! We are going to be so sick of looking at it....let alone eating it. 🥴 These are *boneless* turkey breasts...not like the ones I’ve purchased in the store. I’m going to freeze one. In fact I think I’m going to freeze half of each dish before heating. With each pan of stuffing a qt. of broth comes with it. I’ve already hit the pies! They are huge and the crusts are home made...not the machine stamped ones I buy. The appearance confirms this. And in the tote box was a nice gift...a very large ceramic spoon rest in the shape of an acorn with fall leaves. I nice colorful booklet with instructions and recipes for leftovers was included. Cracker Barrel thought of everything! I wish this had been available when we had lots of family sitting around the table. So many gone now and we aren’t far behind.

I go to my daughter's for Turkey Day, but I'm bringing a pumpkin pie. Have a happy day!
