What's new

The Coffee House

as I pour my wine I do not expect bigger pours but with a cat like this I might receive bigger purrs:

Sounds simple and tasty, Charlie! We're standing down and staying here, as well, so it's going to be a feast for two. I'm happy to go visit and let others cook, but I seem to overeat when I do that, so I'm very happy to be in charge of the menu this year.

I have a very nice, minimally processed 14-pound turkey to roast tomorrow. We're not eating a lot of meat these days so, when we do, I tend to avoid heavily processed stuff and stick to whole birds, or large cuts of beef. I tried to tease the hubby into making his famous mashed potatoes (he has a secret recipe that calls for Yukon Gold, a bit of butter and heavy cream) but he's also recently shed a bunch of weight, so he nixed it. *sniffle* We'll likely stick to jasmine rice or something similar for the white carb portion of the meal that can accept my yummy scratch turkey gravy. :lol: Seared rainbow chard on the side, and my famous apple pie for dessert.

Wine geeks that we are, he has pulled a prize from the cellar:

Nicely aged CdP - I can't wait. :boogie: Lots of football on, too - so a relaxing day in store for tomorrow.


I hope your Cote du Rhone will stand up to your expectation.

I live on the Cote du Rhin and currently we we have more wine than water to process

THERE I FIXED IT! Rolled up trowel attached with bungee cord fix for lost wiper blade. :allteeth: Spotted at local Wal-Mart

That's not a broken wiper repair, that's a new optional accessory from Ronco - the windshield shammy. The left side wipes, the right side polishes.

Yup, all that extra grit, and dirt in that rag, helps polish away the tough bugs. LOL
 
Finally found out I have tomorrow off.
Sister brought home chicken for dinner.
I do believe there will be Blue Bell later.

no - you get three additional wipes in designer colors.
 
Took the day off today and did a little shopping. Picked up fixings for my fresh pumpkin pie. It's just me and Buzz tomorrow. Both of our families are scattered to the winds and we are looking forward to a peaceful and quiet dinner together. We'll have a nice fire going, some good food, good wine, fresh pie, no drama, no chaos, no polite smiling while biting our tongues...

Terri, enjoy that wine!

Sounds lovely! I hope the wine shows well; looking forward to it.

I wish I could make a pumpkin pie, but I'd be the only one enjoying it. Le sigh.

Buzz will eat apple pie - and I make a mean one! - but he prefers pumpkin. Me, as long as it's pie, I am generally good ;)
