Sipping my classic martini. Some may call it a lemon drop. However that is made with vodka.

I and Lizzi went for a long (chilly) walk this morning. She had a lot of energy to burn off. She was on full alert as “pond monsters” were near (geese).

I took a few days off this week.
This morning I was drinking my coffee and my “intruder alert” went off (ring doorbell). A package was delivered. Luckily it was Lizzi approved.

I and a friend “attempted” a dry run at Lizzi’s Christmas card.

It went better than expected….

On this brisk thanksgiving I have chicken on the smoker (not a fan of turkey), candied yams in the oven, green been casserole in the small oven. I and Lizzi on a short walk. We will eat in a little while.

I’m thankful for many things in my life. Most of all that I am NOT a Republican.

I ran across this coffee mug.
I had the same sentiment for a few woman I’ve had in my life in the past.

It didn’t take mind you… maybe I should have licked more?

I watch a lot of youtube cooking channels for ideas, tips and tricks.

However, this bird looks like it was on Ozempic.

An elderly friend made Lizzi a blanket. She is in love with it.
