happy turkeyday to all canadians!

while i skipped the big dinner this year i guess i have lots to be thankful for.

i have a hell of a group of friends here that have rallied round and keep checking in on me.

and i have an international group of cyber friends that have done the same, breaking the barrier and who have entered into my life.

and then there is g'man...who i believe in another life was a private investigator...😉

i am blessed.

This is very affirming stuff. I wish I could store it up in a bottle to save for darker days.

Time you wrote some more poetry, Joe.
 
I had my turkey dinner last night with my folks, siblings, cousins and aunt & uncle.

mmmm... I'm stuffed still 🙂

And yes, we have a LOT to be thankful for in this land. Happy Turkey Day !!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Canadians, and Happy Columbus Day to everyone in the States!

Yep, our Columbus day. The local schools have not honored the holiday though. Fearful of needing snow days later perhaps.
 
Happy Thanksgiving Day folks! Not sure what I'll be cooking for everone next month at my family's turkeyday, it ends up being a busman's holiday for me: I take the Wednesday before off and spend the night at my Dad's so I can cook for the mob that shows up on Thursday--usually 18 or 20 of us. Lots of good mostly healthy food and then after dinner we sit and have coffe and Green Chartreuse.
It's always a fairly international group: before my stepmom retired, she would invite several of the overseas students to come share the holiday with us. Now that she's retired there not so many new faces at the table but still a very worldly group.

Rob: Chartreuse??? GREEN FIRE!!! I had it once, more than 30 years ago, and I remember it to this day... great stuff! Hmmm, I'll have to get some!

And made by monks if I remember correctly. :angel:

there is green chartreuse and also a yelllow chartreuse (go figure) still it is a little like the Italian liqueur Millefiorit or Benedictine , all made with extracts from plants/herbs/flowers. After the first one, the second goes down more easily.
