french cut a bunch of green beans So you'll be having haricot verts à la française? @L@Hey! I looked it up, sounds yummy, if that's not the plan I guess I got some lobbying to do. Maybe git a coupla more Mimosas in her...

Hey I looked it up, sounds better than the dull scissors I use to hack my hair out of my eyes.
Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...

Hey I looked it up, sounds better than the dull scissors I use to hack my hair out of my eyes. Things are lookin' up!  Guests arrived - the wife's brother Dr. Dan from Oregon and niece Mia. I got a present - a bottle of Temperance Trader straight bourbon whiskey, batch no. 1, bottle no. 577. The distillery is a coupla blocks from his house. We'll taste that later this evening. Just got off KP, peeling spuds for mashed potatoes. We're frikkin' steaming those taters, never heard o' that before. Got a line on free range heritage breed turkeys, that's going to be the standard from now on. They got ducks, too, if I can convince my chef to give'm a go.

Six Mimosas in and I got my way, excepts I'm the one who had to actually haircut the verts. Better be worth it, man.

Beans was good, so was the taters. Turkey got a brine soak, it was good and juicy. "Burp"

I was gonna go vegetarian for dinner, but I decided to Hell with it and had a couple of quarter pound chili dogs.
Then I had a nap.

Went to mom's retirement home for dinner in their dining room. I had shrimp cocktail to start, then baked salmon, green bean casserole, candied sweet potatoes, and mashed potatoes with gravy. Others at our table had roast turkey or ham. Champagne, sparkling cider, and egg nog to drink. Pecan pie for dessert.
Pretty nice place! Only problem was we had to leave her apartment for our seating with <1 minute left in the football game, and it was tied 31 to 31.

The destination is never so important as the journey.
But I hope things turned out in your favor.

I had Thanksgiving dinner in a restaurant in Los Angeles. Because of my FIL's operation we had out of town relatives. It was our first holiday meal in 21 years. The food(roast turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, salad, soup, green beans and julienned carrots) was pretty good, and I had bread pudding for dessert. That was excellent! But I still like the home cooking best. And there are no leftovers. 
milk and Girl Scout cookies ;-)

>no leftovers...
You could go buy a small turkey tomorrow, and just cook it for the fridge. I bet you could find a real deal. A loaf or two of bread (I like sourdough), some mayo, lettuce, and tomatoes, and you would be set for several days worth of turkey sandwiches.
