Who's Pat Tay?

Hmmm. What? I have no idea to what you may be referring....

I just had to turn the heat on for the first time since last winter. I’m thankful that it’s working.

I turned on the air conditioner. It was 84 in the house.

Add me to the people grateful you are still here, JRand.

John G., the roaster blew a fuse.

I am tired. I have such a small kitchen. No kitchen today would be designed like they were 50 years ago. Fixing a big meal in such a small kitchen is difficult.

We have returned from a lovely Thanksgiving Day at Laura’s. In addition to us and her parents, we were joined by her friends Sue and Larry, their son Michael, and his 17-year-old twins, Will and Isabella.

I just got in from a wonderful day with my friend and colleague Jason, his partner Mario, and their guests Peter, Fred, Rozeanne, and Rollie. The dinner was really wonderful and the conversation lively and scintillating.

Annabelle and Thatch are alive - no violence in my absence -and they seem to have enjoyed their dinner of duck and tuna.

Laura · « **Reply #110 on:** November 23, 2017, 06:13:03 PM »

Glad everyone survived, Elmore.

I don't know how my mom did this. She did it until she was about 80.

vixmom · « **Reply #112 on:** November 23, 2017, 06:14:54 PM »

Did Wae Ling help cook?

vixmom · « **Reply #113 on:** November 23, 2017, 06:17:01 PM »

We went to my brothers as per usual. Present were my Mom and Vixdad, my SIL,her parents and her sister and brother and her best friend, her husband and her 20 year old daughter

Laura · « **Reply #114 on:** November 23, 2017, 06:20:17 PM »

She did some. The turkey was about to come out of the oven, but she shaped the rolls, mixed the corn casserole, and made the gravy. She ate with us, then I took her home to have dinner with her dad, sister, and grandma.

She had never had ham. She liked it, but really liked the dark meat turkey and stuffing and gravy.

Laura · « **Reply #115 on:** November 23, 2017, 06:21:14 PM »

Now I am going to have a drink.

Of water. A nice big glass of water.
