There is a Reason

Despite it being warm, they played in and outside today and the day is not over.
It is Nathan's day off and he has been swimming and sunbathing. I still have 2 dogs to groom.
Dennis is cooking now. I can smell it and hear it from where I type. The dogs love warm ground beef added in. We have dogs departing - dogs arriving.
Each morning Trigger thinks I am a scratching post. Not Levon - he waits patiently for me to snuggle. He is polite.
Dash has been crazy playing with Olive just now. Olive is very lady like and picky but she gives him the time of day. I think he is charming so of course he wins her over.
I am on the hunt to find a large butterball. I want a 10-12kg - 22lb to 25lb butterball but no one seems to have. If you see one, PLEASE please let me know. We are only seeing small and locally we looked at Loblaws, Longos, Fortinos but we are not seeing big. Last years was way too small and the dogs only got 1 meal with leftovers. If you see...

Darlah, have you thought of doing two 12 lb turkeys? I know, not quite the same, but for some it’s a bonus to get 4 wings & 4 legs. It could be quite the presentation with one not being as picked over, if you’re looking for next day leftovers.
I’ve passed the torch to my daughters, so now it’s their meals to prepare w/ the old gal giving a helping hand and advice “when asked!” I’m enjoying sitting in a corner & smiling and saying yes to everything! 😆
Debi: Passing the torch sounds wonderful!
Darlah, these days you have to initiate it. They (grown kids) think we all LOVE doing it all. One holiday as I was running up and down stairs checking on Mr turkey & Doug doing same refreshing drinks, I noticed our kids on the floor playing with their kids. I had an epiphany. It’s the grandparents who should be playing with their grandchildren and the parents doing the work. I told them there was something wrong with this picture! Anyway, grandkids all grown now, but we still need quality time for catching up. Time is too fleeting and we cherish these special moments!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! This has been the best Fall season in a very long time.
