Well, you've read the notes, you are already stuffed from reading the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently eating the Turkeys in the survival of the fittest.

I remember thanksgivings with my grandma and 10 other family members  - noisy and fun and interesting.

personally I think the best part of thanksgiving is the cranberry sauce - I do not eat it all year so that on Thanksgiving and Christmas it is special.

My grandmother used to make a wonderful cranberry relish with a food mill.  I think she used whole oranges, rind and all.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... Well, I'm still up, and I'm about to head to the airport.  For some reason, I'm actually looking forward to riding the A Train out to Queens to catch the AirTrain to JFK.  Yes, the trip will take about and hour and a half, but it's something I've never done before, so I'm looking at it as adventure.  I was toying with the idea of heading to Penn Station and then taking the LIRR to Jamaica and then taking the AirTrain from there, but, all in all, that might save me 15 minutes of transit time.  And by staying on the A Train all the way out to Howard Beach, I only have one transfer to worry about.

Sounds like a plan to me.

My mom used to make a similar recipe.  I think she came across it in Better Homes & Gardens.  I loved it so much, that I would just eat it plain - I'd treat it as my vegetable/fruit.  And if we had leftovers, it always tasted great over pancakes, or I'd spread it like jam on my toast.  YUMMY!

*And I recently looked at a recent copy of Better Home & Gardens... WOW!  The magazine was never the most "technical" periodical out there, but it really has gone the way of "convenience" and "time-saving".  I was surprised at how dumb-downed some of the recipes were.

Well... I should log off and shut down and start heading to the subway in a few.  Thanks for all the Travel Vibes!

I should be able to post once I'm down in Virginia, but just in case I get side-tracked - nieces and nephew have a tendency to do that - I do want to wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving.  May you celebrate it with the ones you love and the ones who love you, and may you also be Thankful for those who are no longer with us, but live on in our minds and hearts.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I hope we have lots of food reports in gloriously glorious detail - from today and from Thanksgivings past.

I'm listening to Alfred Hitchcock's Music To Be Murdered By - his intros to each track are hilarious, written by James Allardyce, who wrote all his TV show wraparounds.  The music is fun, with great stereo sound, plus the CD also includes the complete soundtrack to Circus of Horrors.

I took a Jacuzzi a couple of hours ago and am quite relaxed.

I plumb MISSED "Project Runway" this evening.  It totally eluded my attention for some reason (probably because I was scanning through the HD channels...BRAVO is channel 48 here...and I was up in the 702s through 798s.

Damn!

Fortunately, BRAVO re-airs the show....will probably catch a repeat by the end of the week.

Tonight's "Criminal Minds", though, was BRILLIANT!  And CSA:NY, which I never watch (!!!), was excellent, as well.

Damn!

I'm torn.

Torn, I tell you.

I have it in mind to go out on Black Friday and shop for a computer and a lounge chair.

I also have it in mind to stay home away from the crowds and do something in/around the house.

That's two pieces of my mind in conflict.

I won't have peace of mind until I make a decision.

Something I started this afternoon was dubbing VHS tapes onto DVD-Rs.  I started with the 2001 Nationals and World Figure Skating Championships, but only the Michelle Kwan performances.  

Looking back, it's only Kwan I'll truly want to re-watch except for a rare few Ice Dancing performances and Pairs performances.  I already have the last two Winter Olympics well-represented on DVD, so those aren't going to figure into my dubbing.

I am still flirting with a viral thingie.  It's not a heavy flirtation, but there are noticeable signs of different symptoms that crop up every now and again.

I do NOT want to be sick over the weekend.

I think I hear my pillows calling.

Time to get some shut-eye.

Good Morning! Once again...

I'm currently in the JetBlue terminal at JFK, and, boy, is this place a veritable hotbed of activity!

The subway ride here wasn't too bad.  I had my iPod with me, and that helped to pass the time - Thank You, Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington.  I've never really ridden the subway during the wee hours of the morning, but I've heard things here and there about what one could see and hear - and smell - on the subways during the wee hours of the morning... And I'm afraid those tales are all true.  ;)

Check-in was a breeze.  Security was too, and I just had a breakfast burrito from "Mex and the City".  Alas, I don't think the spa here in the terminal is open just yet.  Ah, well... Next time.
