What about your missing cast member?
How many hours did you work today?
Good night, George.
I just read your parody, FJL and the review you kindly linked .... Your parody song was Very funny and as usual spot on
I woke to the unpleasant sight of frost in the backyard. Ugh.
Happy Thanksgiving, DR Ginny! :)
Good morning. I will be working in the kitchen at the church today preparing for a 97th birthday party after the service.
She is actually my mother-in-law's former roommate! They were roommates before WW2, if I understand correctly.

Same here! Just a thin covering on some surfaces, but it wasn't forecast and I DON'T WANNIT.
Edit: A thin covering of SNOW, not frost.

Sunday morning greetings! Richard and I just put a 17.5 pound turkey in the oven. Our Thanksgiving feast will be at 2pm so that Paramedic Rob can be at work at 4.
17 lbs is a lot of turkey, DR Ginny! Are you having the leftovers on Thursday?

DR Vixmom, did you find the caramel corn recipe I posted the other day?

I did! Thank you!
elmore, got it.
Something I'm still surprised about (maybe a possible chat topic if anyone else cares): There's a new practice of having vendors go up and down the aisles before a show and at intermission, with candy, wine, soda, and other concessions. This seems to make it clear that it's fine with management to eat, drink and rattle wrappers during the show. This didn't really disturb me at a show like "Beautiful" which while emotional in its intimate story is mostly funny and light in its style. But all the M&M's, etc, seemed all wrong at FIDDLER, with lops of chomping and slurping going on during deeply felt, emotional moments.
In London, even as far back as 1990, they used to roam the aisles with ice cream, but ice cream was relatively quiet. :)

I agree, DR Jennifer. It's a ridiculous situation.
DR ELMORE have you tried a knee brace?
I am watching Ben Bailey stand up comedy routine on Netflix. I highly recommend it
DR ELMORE I use the BE ACTIVE knee brace that practically eliminated the pain from my sciatica.....I know hard to believe.
You can get one on EBAY for a couple of bucks from China......two weeks for delivery....or a few bucks more from the US with quicker shpg. Might be worth a try.
Back, with a 22-pound turkey. I WIN.
Why was I under the delusion that the Metropolitan Opera had released a recording of their first production in Lincoln Center, Barber's Antony and Cleopatra?
I do have their earlier recording of Vanessa.

The Birthday Girl was so happy to have so many friends and family present. Her son passed away last month, so she needed to have something happy.
Yes DR ELMORE that is the one.

DITTO. It's a shameless dumbing down of the theatre.

I remember years ago, one of my coworkers was having her whole family from both sides at her house for Thanksgiving. They got a 39 pound turkey! It took 13, count 'em, 13 hours to cook! She said that it was so big, there was only about an inch of room on each side of the bird in her oven.
I didn't even know turkeys grew that big!
Two turkeys would require two ovens.

I'd bake one one day and the other the next. Or have two ovens.

Wouldn't life be easier baking two turkeys around 20 lbs each?

The Birthday Party was a success. My best helper is five years old. He wears his little blue apron with pride.

She's wonderful, by the way. Still sharp as a tack and gets around just fine. I hope to be like her some day. Way, way in the future.
My next dinner prep task requires getting up on my step stool to get the dishes from a top cupboard shelf. Fr. Richard's at church, the upstairs housemates are not stirring, and my niece is visiting Gram, so I'm taking a break. Won't get up there without a "spotter."
I guess sciatica is what I'm suffering right now, still from the other night. It got better, then I did a bunch of stuff yesterday and this morning it was awful again.
So, I wonder how the knee brace helps with it. Seems like what you'd need is an ASS brace.
Well, let's not go there.

DR elmore, this is what DR Jeanne had to say about anrica. I don't recommend the Arnicare Cream by Boiron. If it made a difference I haven't noticed.
The Arnica Rub is my favorite of the Arnica topicals, since it has lots of other remedies in it as well. About a week ago I started a little trial of Topricin, a homeopathic cream for arthritis. I'm using it on my two arthritic fingers. It's helping. If you don't get results with Arnica, you may want to try Topricin. I've seen in on Amazon. It's very easy to use--no smell, absorbs easily, etc.
Life Extension has a wonderful supplement for arthritis, the Fast-Acting Joint Formula. It contains a high dose of hyaluronic acid and it really is fast-acting. A bit pricey, but very effective.
the Arnica Rub I like is by NatraBio. I see there is also one by A.Vogel, but that one is straight Arnica, the herb. The NatraBio product is a homeopathic combination product.
My cousin swears by Australian Dream for arthritis. I haven't tried it, but it has good reviews. She also uses Arnica for EVERYTHING, except when she's using Australian Dream.

;D
During the movie today I munched on my potato chips during the noisy parts, fortunately there were plenty of them.
DR elmore, please let me know which one you get and if it works.
I smuggle in a small bag of chips or popcorn while Keith smuggles in a large bag of popcorn. His is superior to most popcorn anywhere that we want to eat his. I have a special purse I carry when we go. Today the woman in front of us handed over her ticket and then was asked to open the two bags she was carrying. I had a moment of panic-LOL.

My friend Margo always brings her own stuff...popcorn, Twizzlers/Red Vines, assorted candies, cans of diet Pepsi, etc.

I suggest she never carry a second bag with her, they might check them both. I casually slid my purse to my side and back a bit so the size would not be obvious. Boy, that would have been embarrassing and frustrating ;D

You can take any food and drink sold on premises into the theater where I usher. I don't care for it, either. But the patrons love it, whether it's a rock concert or the ballet.
Had a nice thirty-minute snooze and then watched A Mall and the Night Visitors - 1955 live broadcast on kinescope - it's exactly as I remembered it and I enjoyed it, old-fashioned as it is, and when TV was about very different things than it is today.

She has a big purse/bag, so everything fits without trouble.

The Washington Center has allowed bottled water for years. Just a few months ago, they started allowing alchohol and sodas into the theater, BUT only when served in their new "travel cups" that have lids. They're referred to as adult sippy cups. ;)

I have a headache.

No. There were too many people who were busy today.
