About Me

My photo
Split personality. Liking the arts, especially opera, and hockey and Los Toros. I know, I know THAT one is non pc currently. But I can't help it saw some in Spain and got hooked, but good. But on the other hand right now opera and hockey are in the forefront!

Thanks...

Despite 'mumble' years in these U.S. of A...
Thanksgiving still feels strange.
Hm., yes.
So, well - one does what one has to.. but..
much rather have lobster or shrimp!

Especially the emphasis on Turkey, Cranberries, Pecan Pie.
I still can't quite savor PIE-any pie.
Cakes  -Yes.
Petit Fours - Yes.
Bon Bons - Yes.
Ice cream - Yes,  tripled, but pie?

Back 'home' there is a harvest fest.. but it's NOT a legal holiday.
Schools and Government offices are NOT closed.
It is celebrated more in the thought than reality.
Maybe in the countryside there is some rejoicing.!
That backbreaking labor of harvesting is done with!

Anyway,
saying THANKS is always a good thing.
Give thanks to friends.
For the abundance of foods from around the world.
Being healthy,
able to enjoy the 'finer ' things in life...
such as hockey opera, music, los toros...ahem!
And whatever you feel needs a BIG THANK YOU and HUGS!
