I LOVE the whole cranberries and the "stuff" is exactly correct! It's STUFFING!

I used some orange juice to cook the cranberries and added orange rind
after cooking - I think they're delicious, but the comment from one of
my kids was "bland and sour" - oh well more for me!

Cranberries and turkey are discernible but you'll have to 'splain what else
is on the plate.

Can't stand the cooked cranberries, and that's dressing in the upper right.
It never saw the inside of a turkey.

We had turkey for lunch yesterday. We did the last of the yard work
(gutters, put away the patio furniture, blow the water our of the
hoses with the compressor, haul away the last of the big pots on the
patio). Then we swapped the full-size sofa in the living room for
a love seat and hauled the sofa to the curb. Some guys came and got
it right before I was going to roll it into the garage for the night.
Hooray!

We were both tuckered out, so we had pizza and salad delivered.

Today I'll bring the Christmas tree up from the basement and set it up.
Sad that we have to use an artificial tree, but DH is allergic to pine
pollen. If I'm really energetic I'll put the lights on it. If I'm
really, really energetic, I'll drag the old man out to the appliance
store to look at stoves.

Honestly, when I have a weekend of sitting staring at the television,
it scarcely seems worth mentioning. You're not getting a well-rounded
picture.

Sorry. Have a lie-down for me.

Then get a fir tree or a spruce tree... Canadian hemlock makes an
attractiove Christmas tree too I doubt you will find any pine trees
sold as Christmas trees... pine trees are grown for lumber. they get
very large and as they grow they lose their lower branches so don't
have that conical Christmas tree shape.

And besides, the conifers used for Christmas trees produce pollen in
late spring and early summer, by the time winter rolls around they've
long stopped producing pollen and any clinging to the trees has been
washed off by rain.

I could live with an artificial tree but my wife insists on a real one.
She always wins that one.

We picked up our tree today, a 7 foot Fraser fir. There were pine trees
being sold there. Pine trees may be grown for lumber, but they are also
grown specifically for Christmas trees, which is probably more
profitable than lumber. They are ready to harvest in a few years and
need only a little pruning to develop a conical shape.

We stopped buying cut trees, they are too messy and we see no point in
supporting the killing of a perfectly healthy tree. For the past ten
years we've planted a live tree. Some sixty years ago much of this
property was used as a Christmas tree farm so now there are many very
mature trees, however they produce saplings and whenever I see one
that looks particulary nice I transplant it to a more conspicuous
place. I've been moving Norway spruce and Colorado spruce to our cat
cemetary. We've been here 16 years and so far six cats have expired,
all in marked graves in a hedgerow. The hedgerows here are strewn
with rocks of various sizes, I pick out a small boulder for a
headstone and chisel their names and dates in it. The last one was
for Joiner, she's resting in a nice spot under a forest pansy She
still needs a headstone and I have one picked out but it's been way
too cold, that stone is frozen in ground. I was able to dig her grave
just before the ground froze... for now it's marked with a pile of
small stones. I bury the ferals too.

No. The last couple of years we bought a Fraser fir, he started wheezing
pretty much as soon as the tree came in the house.

He put the lights on it, and we've got a new stove on order:

This one:

Although of course we did not pay the "MSRP".

Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price

The mythical price that the mfgr would like to get, but the real selling
price makes the buyer feel like they got a bargain.

No, that was back in our Old Daze when the MANUFACTURER of products had a very good idea of what their manufactured item may be worth in the U.S. "free market". But NOW all prices are set by the MalWartization of the retail markets!! NOT any semblance of any "free market"!!

OBTW that is WAY EXCESSIVE for a gas stove! What's all that electronic CRAP on it? I bought a very adequate 4 burner gas stove+oven/broiler for about $300 NEW!

Nahh! Web are the Kinda Lucky Generation! We get to use up as much fossil fuel as we want before we die! Back in the 1990's I at one point owned TWO Chevy Suburbans! Great camping/boating vehicles!

Australia. 6 cans of 440 ml (15 fl oz) of Guinness cost US$16 at the
cheapest retailer:
