Good Morning, Sunshines.
I am back, incase you noticed my absence. I needed to stay focused on the tasks in front of me and blogland tends to distract me. A few days before Thanksgiving my son said he had the day off and would be coming for the Big Day. It's always good to see him and this was unexpected. I dry brined the turkey, something I hadn't done before. It turned out very well. Matthew brought a crumble top apple pie, a perfect end to our feast.
We are now into winter, except no snow. It's currently 9 F/-13 C, with a high of 16 F/-9 C. The horses now have hay outside to keep them warm and happy and I will have a fire later to do the same for me.
So now the real rush of the season starts. I cannot say how happy I am to have all of that behind me. I hope all of my American friends had a good Thanksgiving day.

I haven't celebrated yet -- tomorrow my son is free and we're doing food together. But yesterday was a lovely day, bit of cooking, reading Oliver Sacks' Gratitude, jigsaw puzzle, afternoon online chatting with friends. I'm glad your day was good, too.
Happy Thanksgiving! I am tired the day after, no cooking today. I don't have the energy for this anymore.
Thanksgiving must involve a lot of work behind the scenes. And then you have to start all over again for Christmas! Perhaps Thanksgiving should be a bit earlier.
What a lovely fire to sit beside.
