How was your thanksgiving? 🦃

Nuts, if you need a nap, that's a sign that you had a good Thanksgiving!  Where so many people get the energy to go "Battle Shopping," today, is beyond me.

My Thanksgiving was very nice. 

-- THANKS, TO "SOCKS" ... I went with your recipe for olive oil, garlic powder and s/p, for my sweet potatoes.  I added added a sprinkling of fresh thyme, during the cooking, and as a garnish.  It was a hit!

-- THANKS, TO MY HOST/HOSTESS ... They're close friends of a another friend.  I'd met them at a couple of his parties, but didn't know them well.  Along with a traditional turkey dinner, there was the added pleasure of getting to know them.

-- THANKS TO MOTHER NATURE ... The evening ended with some serious rain, which has been so desperately needed for;  wildfires, making a little dent in long-term drought, and clearing the choking smoke from the regional air.  (It's still raining, at 2:30 PM, on Friday.  I love it!)

Have a good weekend, all!

I'm sick of stew, WKD has a bad cold, and I watched 5 movies (Direct TV has the movie channels free for 4 days). It's just past midnight and its pouring rain so I'll go back to bed for a few hours. All the wicked kitties are sleeping soundly. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. No Black Friday sales for me.

My TG was a blast. Initially, we had appetizers including deviled eggs and brouchette topped with mozzarella cheese. On to the main course which we had the turkey (of course) home made dumplings, mashed taters, sweet taters, home made stuffing, green beans, and of course the gravy for the taters and the dumplings and the stuffing.

To finish, we had an "Elegant Farmer" warmed apple pie with French vanilla ice cream.

Very good.
