Here's a twist for you all....
We spend Thanksgiving with my Mom every year. And she's very trying to have in your home. Snoops, asks very personal questions, notices every cobweb.
Soooo, most of the time we go out to eat. Last year Jim said no, I'm cooking. But did he clean? NO! Did he even notice my mom was stressing me out no end? NO!
So back to a restaurant we went this year.
Then Friday, he went grocery shopping, buying a small fresh turkey, on sale, 2/3's off what it was before Thanksgiving. In fact, he came home with the entire meal, and declared - this only came to 20 bucks! 20 bucks! LOL
So yesterday he cooked his post-Thanksgiving turkey and we invited a friend over. He said Mary, we are not going out to eat anymore on Thanksgiving. We're inviting your mom out here. Oh lovely, well I have what 362 days to prepare for that arrival? he he Just make sure you buy wine too Jim....LOL
So we have an abundance of turkey today. Made soup last night from the carcas. Today we'll have turkey sandwiches, with other leftovers.
Mary
