Happy Turkey Day to everyone.
If you live beyond the reaches of this traditional festival of overeating, go get yourself a turkey (or at least a ham) and join us on Thursday --- at least in spirit. This and Christmas are the only days of the year we throw our diets out the window.
We'll have fifteen around our table. Good wine, a 20-pound turkey with dressing, two or three kinds of potato, vegetables, salads, and three different home-made breads. Then we'll top it off with still-warm apple, cherry, and pumpkin pies, with ice cream and whipped cream --- and coffee, of course.
Life is seldom a whole lot better --- unless it's the cold turkey sandwiches that evening.
(And guys --- don't forget that the women prepared all this. The least you can do is clean up after the meal, and wash all those dishes, pots and pans.....)
