the goose is getting fat

So--we did not serve Turducken at our house for Thanksgiving, and I hope you didn't either--it's much too disturbing. If you want Turkey, Duck and Chicken all at the same time (I don't know why you would), could you just serve them individually without stuffing them inside one another?

We DID, however, have lots of fun, lots of food, and now--lots of leftovers. I took pictures, but they're on an old fashioned camera where you have to develop the photos, and that's much too complicated at this point, so check back later for photos of Mary Lee, Wally and Becca Walawender and her SO, Kristin. Kristin made SUCH delicious pies. She is a very talented girl. And Becca is H*I*L*A*R*I*O*U*S. Overall, it was one of the most, if not the most enjoyable Thanksgiving I've ever had.

I really appreciated them all coming over. It was a big boost for my mom to be able to visit. She thought for years that she would never get to see Mary Lee in person again. They both have health considerations that make travel difficult. So--THANK YOU Mary Lee!

OMG, it's HAILING right now at our house. Weird, because there is never ANY precipitation here at all. Just strong winds. Not so fun on garbage day. IYGMD.

So--there ya go. Adam spent a lot of time with us over the weekend, and he was a tremendous boost to mommy because he could take care of baby and give mommy a happy break. We ate delicious Papusas with some sort of cabbage contraptions, and Dave studied 99.9999% of the time, because his tests are Friday and next week.
