What I'm Reading This Week #27
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you've got the day off to enjoy. I would really appreciate the weather dialing it back from Satan's taint to dryish heat please. I'm not even asking for much. Like 83 degrees would make me happy at this point but there's no end in sight to the 90's. The Mr and I have both been plagued with migraines this week. He had a two day event and I had an ocular migraine which is just so crappy to deal with since you can't read or do anything until your vision isn't screwed up. I got to wait on hold for an hour Tuesday with the state tax department so I decided to sand and prime the newel post while listening to hold music designed to make you hang up. To quote Bugs Bunny "he don't know me vewy well, do he?" I got that squared away and later went out between pop up storms to deadhead some zinnias which you may have seen in Wednesday's post. Speaking of Wednesday, it was a busy day in the ga...
White AND dark meat
ReplyDeleteStuffing
Pumpkin AND apple pie
Scratch - thanks to you!
Christmas movies when we can get the TV away from the NFL watching family members, which we tolerate most of the time.
Shopping is done!
White, but I think I'm doing an "everything but the bird" Thanksgiving this year.
ReplyDeleteBoth mashed and sweet
Either - stuffing if it's in the bird, dressing if not.
Both - love pie
Mostly make, but buy if I I'm running late
Usually the tv is off, or I rent a movie for after.
Love spending time with family, but also kinda get a little crazy around them.
I haven't shopped, but I won't be venturing out for Black Friday. No way, no how.
-White... thinking about making a turkey breast this year!
ReplyDelete-Mashed potatoes! The first time I tried sweet potatoes were a few years ago, and I am in my mid 30s. My family never made them growing up!
-Dressing with a lot of sage! (Homemade!!!)
-Chocolate Pie
-A combination of store bought and homemade.
-We watch the Macy's parade, and then football is usually on
-My family doesn't do a lot of get togethers around Thanksgiving, and I am okay with that :)
-I love Black Friday shopping...not for sure if I am going or shopping online this year.
White & dark meat
ReplyDeleteMashed potatoes (do not like sweet at all)
Stuffing
Hmmm...I like both, but probably go more for pumpkin this time of year
Football all the way =o)
Too complicated to answer -- LOL!!
Don't do any shopping on Friday (and typically don't leave the house much)
Both white and dark meat.
ReplyDeleteMashed potatoes for sure.
Dressing.
Neither - PECAN PIE
All homemade.
We also watch the Macy's parade - it's the official start of the holiday season! Football and then Christmas movies that night with a turkey and dressing sandwich....
Love being together with family.
Shopping is done - now I need to wrap everything.
Both white and dark
ReplyDeleteMashed potatoes so you can dip your turkey in it!
Dressing! We have regular and (being in the PNW) oyster dressing.
Pumpkin Pie
All made from scratch
If our team (Seahawks) is playing we watch that but usually watch Hallmark Christmas movies.
Our family all gets along. I have different political views than the rest of the family and just tune out the political talk if it comes up.
Sometimes we'll shop on Friday night when there are still some good deals and way less people. The last time I went at midnight was horrible and probably will never do that again.
White meat please!
ReplyDeleteMashed taters with lots of gravy AND a helping of delicious candied sweet potatoes!
Dressing, since I make a big pan full and don't bother with "stuffing" the turkey. The dressing, again with lots of turkey gravy is my favorite Thanksgiving dish!
Pumpkin Pie
A mix of homemade and store bought. Some things can be from the store and it doesn't matter taste-wise and I'm all about saving labor since I get NO help!
Nebraska plays the day after T-Giving. But with 3 sobs and a football fan husband there will probably be a game on the TV. I'd prefer a Hallmark Christmas movie.
Love my family and spending time with them, especially the grandkids, is the BEST part of all the holidays!!
No shopping on Thanksgiving or Black Friday. I hate crowds.
