Offline for the entire day yesterday so this is first opportunity I’ve had to post.

To our hostess and all commenters, both regular and casual:

Best wishes for the holiday weekend and my hope that your Thanksgiving celebration was happy and meaningful.

…actually – due to “environmental reasons” (our power was only restored late Wednesday, after being off 8 days from downed lines all over our neck of the woods: bit of a disaster, that …could have been worse, cleanup still ongoing …for example, there’s 60-70 feet of our neighbor’s fallen pine tree in our backyard – missed the house, thank G_d), we ended up having stuffed steak for our modest Thanksgiving repast.

My wife had to improvise on her own (as I was otherwise deployed, laying waste in the backyard with a chainsaw). And it was brilliant.

I mean, stuffed steak: who knew.

Oh yes, Werther’s caramels are a favorite. So much so that I can’t allow myself to buy a bag, because I will eat the whole thing within the day.

Speaking of food, Neo, I happened to notice that Werther’s Original caramels don’t list cocoa or anything I could identify as chocolate in their ingredients.

Everyone, except 1 son, 1 daughter in-law, and 2 granchildren have cleared out; it was a great day of family and food. Family is everything. Mrs parker and I are blessed; we are all blessed. In my corner of Iowa we escaped freezing rain so that is a blessing also.

Best wishes to neo, her family, and all of you hang around this blog of sanity. Be of strong heart.

President Obama delivered his Thanksgiving address this morning, including a political lecture on Syrian refugees. He told Americans that Syrian refugees were just like the pilgrims who came to America on the Mayflower.

What an oppressive image of women slaving for nothing and being forced to kill and burn animals for a hetero-normative evil racist privileged group that should not exist…

Happy Thanksgiving..

don’t forget to tune into the indian video that describes the massacre that the holiday really was, and listen to feminist and American Indian Elizabeth Warren tell us about maize… and the multicultural Eden that white man destroyed that was the realm of the noble savage (while we forget the Spaniards).

Given that women will not be free until the institution of marriage is destroyed that image drives the studies courses people in college CRAZY… its akin to a satanic cult dancing naked around virgin goats… cant you see that too? 🙂

Happy Thanksgiving, Neo and everyone. Our feast is tomorrow. I spent today on preparations and pie-baking while Mr Whatsit walked our daughter’s dog in the woods and our grown children and their spouses and our grandchild spent the day with in-laws. That works – that way everyone gets everything. This is my favorite holiday: nothing but food and thankfulness and togetherness, and who cares when. I hope all of you spend these fine glowing late-autumn days in peace and plenty.
