They have closed the NYC schools so my sister in law doesn’t have to trek into a Manhattan every day anymore

[singdaw]

I sympathize with you, DR vixmom...


When the holiday is about eating and family, and the pandemic takes out the family part...

[singdaw]

Well, we can still give thanks for eating.

[John G.]

We get to choose our own pues

Choosing pues is really fun at the holidays.

[John G.]

Look! It's the latest Honda Achord!

Duly noted.

The birthday party was fun. We sat outside in our socially distanced spaces and had barbecued brisket, ribs and sausage with some nice sides. There was a delicious birthday cake. It was more of a roll with strawberries at the center and whipped cream for frosting.

But the true highlight of the evening was when Gail's sister pulled out this year's eggnog. It was outrageously good. Then she served a little of last year's eggnog, which had been in the freezer for the past year. It was even better. I'm going to dream of that eggnog.

[John G.]

The recipe is really easy, but I sort of lose focus after the first few ingredients: Take a fifth of bourbon and a fifth of rum ...

[John G.]

There's also a 5-pound bag of sugar, a gallon of heavy cream and a dozen eggs in there. The nutmeg is freshly grated on the top.

Which won’t assist with my goal to become a smaller woman

Best to take the pies you will eat less of.  I would like to try the pumpkin custard.

[Jane]

That poor Honda.

I don't think we will do any special eating for Thanksgiving.

The frozen one was ven better  . Was it a different recipe?

I really don’t want to have to go to the supermarket this weekend, but I wanna make a cranberry chess pie.

I guess it is the same recipe.   

[John G.]

Not a different recipe, but everything blended together better after a year. It was smooth, oh so smooth.

[Jane]

Maybe it is the cream that makes the frozen version better.  My sour cream cake and cookies are great when frozen.

It sounds delicious.

I don't blame you for not wanting to go,  I hope we can avoided. 

[Jane]

I’ll take candy.

I can make that happen.

[John G.]

Good night, all.

My boss buys two pies from a local farm for everyone in the office for Thanksgiving

I hope that two pies will be enough for you and your co-workers.

Hi, Tom.

[TCB]

I have been on hold with See's Candy for a good while.  I am trying to find out why a tin of Toffee-ettes was delivered today.  It say to me and from me on the box label but nothing is inside.

I thought you meant there were no toffee-Estes In the box.

[George]

Look! It's the latest Honda Achord!

HEADS UP!! 

[TCB]

Hello, George.

[TCB]

Good evening.

[TCB]

I don’t think I ever had egg nog with booze in it.
