Three of the 4 girls are in the kitchen cooking everything but the turkey
which I put in earlier (it's done).

I get to kick back & watch some football.

I poured a wee dram of the Irish.

This is fun.

Turning over the the cooking is great.

Happy tryptophan to all.

How many people in the world can do that? ... just... "Kick back?"

If your world is one of survivial that allows you just enoguh time to
eat, sleep and deficate and occasionaly procreate, even when or if such
survivial level existance allows for the space and time of "kicking
back' can you actualy, really, do so? Or are you fooling yourself with
a false sence of security? False in that there is no security, no
matter how low the interest rate

Wouldnt such a creature be prey to its own awarness of the savage
brutality of nature?

Its mere existance an harrowing exeriance amongst abundance. Nature is
infinatly prodigiouse, but not one seed in a million comes to fruition

Almost everything else is done, just a few finishing touches remain to
make a solitary and perhaps last winter holiday meal an particular
elderly reltative of mine will celibrate, that we will be able to and it

My daughter and family (two hours away) needed to have this dinner on
Friday, primarily because husband only has Friday off. She is cooking
everything, which she always does a good job of. We four girls (three
generations) will also use the day to final plan for our "Boxing Day"
on December 23rd. So I will be bringing all of the boxing materials
I'm not using myself for pretty-packings into the 20+ large boxes we
put together for families.

As of this evening I will be two breads shy of having six different
sweet breads baked and into the freezer, 24 nini-loafs of each type.
One batch of dough shy for five or six cookies to the freezer (baked
tp freeze last), which will be eight to ten dozen cookies of each
sort, and I'll make 72 chocolate blocks (covered with peppermint bits
and put on a stick) to package by twos for the boxes also. The two
gallons of cranberry compoteI made last weekend has been slightly
doled out for locals, and well over a gallon goes with me to family
tomorrow. Daughter freezes to use all year long in her various
bakings. Whew! if I didn't work full time I sure could better enjoy
all of the year end cooking and baking I do.

It was fun. The Schipperke got the blue ribbon in the small dog class. I
have a neighbor who has one of those. It was in the "non-working" dog class
which doesn't make much sense since they were originally ratters on Belgian
ships. I suppose by non-working they mean they aren't herders.

Animal planet [?] does a puppy bowl through the whole affair. Of
late we've been recording the SB- watch the puppy bowl or do something
constructive- then join the SB & fastforward *to* the commercials.

DVR's are cool.

And last year (or the year before last?) it was a beagle raised in
my backyard. Well, it's close enough to be considered my back
yard, but it's technically a different city that. Especially when
it's feeding time. That win must have brought that breeder a lot
of business because I never noticed that cacophony of 30-40 beagles
before that. Donkeys, yes. Beagles, no.

Sea Lion Kidneys have much more tryptophan than turkey. Short of
getting your hands on some of those, pork beef and chicken have the
same amount as turkey.
