There was a turkey, all right. We just didn’t eat it!

In fact, we almost didn’t eat at all. I didn’t even finish setting the table. . .

Somebody got real sick, real fast. In fact, he still looks like a giant strawberry this morning.

It wouldn’t be a holiday with Morera’s without a trip to the Emergency Room. It’s just, it’s usually a broken bone. . .

And it’s usually…

So here’s a thankful prayer that the little ones are safe and sound…and the big one returned, pumped full of benadryl and other stuff, but hungry as a horse.

Here’s the pork roast that had cooked all day (and then…all evening!)

And there was no pumpkin pie…a flan instead!

 

Here’s hoping you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! And the gentle reminder that every day is for giving thanks.

Christmas shopping and the art of antagonism

I went Christmas shopping today…finally. Oh, I’ve been picking up things here and there as they kind of struck me, but there were things left on my list that still needed to be picked up, and since I wasn’t particularly stressed about it, made an event of it with Jonathan and Christy.

For the record, it’s impossible to go anywhere around here without running into somebody we know, so the game was predicting how many people we’d run into. I came up short every time.

Anyway, things seem to be getting a little tense around here. I witnessed a fight break out between a shopper and a harried clerk. For. Real.

Merry Christmas y’all. Merry. Christmas.
