Jan, I think everyone looks forward to Fridays.
Even retired it means the end of another week.
Tammy, please do tell what was happening! Curious minds want to know!
Patti, hope you had fun blowing leaves.
Tracy, was your DH surprised? Funny that you want to decorate later than he does!
Tamara, have fun at your retreat!
Wendy, have fun with your daughters and thrifting!
We had to wait around for a phone call this morning about Steve's insurance. Turned out to be a good call! Then we went to town expecting packages and only got 2 small ones. Got the mail and then stopped at the grocery store where I got all the fixings for Thanksgiving dinner. I couldn't believe the cost of the doggone turkeys!!!! $3.49 a pound!!!! I didn't want to buy it but I did. Even considered cooking one of our geese for a half second... I don't think I could eat it if we did!
I figured it's once a year and this is special because it won't be with family so it's worth it. Later we chatted with Steve's friend and due to certain circumstances we decided to join forces with my BFF and her family and we're going to have it on Sunday together at Nick and Katja's house. I'll cook the turkey and stuffing, make the green bean casserole and the pumpkin pie and get the rolls ready to bake. Katja is from East Germany and hasn't ever cooked a turkey before! So Steve volunteered me.
I love cooking turkey dinners!
So that's our plan for Thanksgiving. On Thursday we may just thaw out a bunch of our crab and crack it all and what we don't eat we'll put in jars and can it so I can make crabcakes or omelets or crab dip or whatever much easier than thawing it and cracking it before I can make anything with it.
Steve is still holding out hope for goose hunting. He's moving a little better and Nick wants to go too so maybe they can get one for Thanksgiving dinner too.
Otherwise, not much is happening... I haven't scrapped in days because I've been too tired or too busy so I hope I can get some done this weekend. Need to finish the laundry too. At least the weather has warmed up some! No snow is predicted for us but lots of rain. But in Ketchikan just on the other side of the strait they're supposed to get 6-10 inches tomorrow so we could get some here too. Time will tell...
Have a wonderful weekend!
