Thanksgiving was nice and quiet... We slept in, made some breakfast, then went to see the new James Bond movie, "Quantum of Solace." A good chick flick and dick flick... DH really likes the Bond franchise, and I... um... I really like Daniel Craig. We both enjoyed the movie. A little choppier than "Casino Royale," but fun to watch. After the movie, we allowed our good friend Marie Callender to cook us dinner. She's a good cook. And she didn't even mind that we showed up without calling first, she just let us sit down and eat! So what am I thankful for? Friends, family, my health. Mostly that I get to wake up and go to sleep with the best husband in the world.
Yesterday (Friday), we totally avoided anything that resembled shopping. No "Black Friday" crowd crush for us, thankyouverymugh. Another sleep-in day, then up to San Francisco to visit my client for some work and dinner. She's a good cook; we had a yummy spinach salad with pomegranate seeds and pumpkin/cheese ravioli.
Today... ah... today... nothing. Absolutely nothing. I didn't get out of bed until 10:00, played on the computer while I listened to "Car Talk" over the internet, then went downstairs for breakfast while listening to "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me." Since I had finished my novel (YAY!), I knit one heel on my Gumdrops and started another pair of slippers. (Yes, another pair.) So, yes, ChickenKnittle... holiday knitting will commence with vigor! The meals for the day were of the grazing variety - there were leftover quiche, leftover veal parmesean, leftover hamburgers, leftover Thanksgiving ham dinner, and leftover pumpkin pie. Yum.
Tomorrow? Well it looks like another day of relaxation... the only thing on the calendar is Madonna's afternoon knit group. Dinner will be one of DH's specialties: tacos!
