After Thanksgiving Grandma Update
Sunday, November 28th, 2010
It will be fun to see what Giada thinks of Menzie. She followed Emily and Arlette around like a little puppy dog.
Michael and I went to St. Bernard’s today because my sister had a Mass said for Rosemary and Joe. I cooked a turkey and dressing and made gravy and cranberries yesterday and we have been pigging out for two days. Friday Michael cooked the peppered Petit Jean ham Mary Ann brought. I am going to make a pot of beans tomorrow with the bone. It was not as hot as I remembered and I have eaten tons of it, too. I still have some pie pastry in the refrigerator so I may make another mince pie or maybe a cherry one as I found the canned cherries I knew I had somewhere when I sent Michael out to buy some for Thanksgiving. Amy and Brad sent over a tree I had given them a few years back and Michael has it all set up. It looks really pretty just as it is, but, of course, we will decorate it. We had Giada yesterday while Amy and Brad were decorating so we didn’t even think about doing anything. The first Sunday of Advent liturgy nudged me into getting out the Advent wreath and getting down the Christmas dishes and even opening the door to the decorations closet. It is a good thing Kate and David are coming because it is hard to start pulling out all the Christmas stuff. It is so much easier to sit down at the computer.
