Overfilled

 

What a satisfactory day! I arose at daybreak, and that’s no hardship because the sun doesn’t come up until almost seven o’clock. So I made my own breakfast and showered. Great start for a day of loving friends and family. I simply sat back and watched other people cook. Boy oh boy did it ever smell good! And it tasted wonderful. I got lost before I got there so the food was nearly ready by the time I hugged everybody and had a shot of liquor.

Turkey, dressing, cranberries, squash, green bean casserole, cooked carrots, broccoli salad, apple pie a la mode, and creamed coffee. I was stuffed tighter than the roasted old bird and could hardly stand up.

I will help with leftovers for a few days. Grand daughter saw to that with a care package now in my fridge. Rain began as I left the Cardinals and continued well into the night. My trees are happy too. I repeat: What a satisfactory day!
