Don't Take My Tom!

I'm watching Pieces of April, which you all know is one of my favorite movies. One of the memorable lines is, "Please give me my stupid fucking turkey!". This was the first holiday without Dad. I took the kids up to the grave site to see his headstone before we had our Thanksgiving. It's been a bit sad. Mom stayed all night last night. We thought about going shopping at 5 am. We've never done that before...but...didn't work out. Anyway, hope you had a nice turkey day and you had a smart bird in the pot!

Halloween Treats

Should one serve a 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon with Baby Ruth Candy Bars??? Should one even think about such a thing? Hell yes...seems to me it's a perfect match! Give it a whirl...perhaps a new Halloween tradition in the making. May I say...it's simply beautiful tonight. Snow on Halloween...soft quiet snow...the quiet is SO QUIET it seems loud...ya know what I mean? I've got a fire going in the woodstove, a handful of the kids candy and I'm thinking about opening up that bottle of vino...sigh...if I can only stay awake that long...yawn...of course the candy is the main inspiration...I could probably eat candy while I sleep...in fact...I think I have. Goodnight all...(as if..."all"...smirk)
