The Irony Is Not Lost On Me
Happy Thanksgiving, of course.
Now, for those of you with a wicked bent, here's a little bit of news that was highlighted mere hours ago (though apparently it HAPPENED on the 13th, that's the NY Times for you): Ruth M. Siems, an inventor of Stove Top Stuffing died just in time to avoid the holidays.
I can attest that she touches my life in a little way every year because my father, Thanksgiving Commander, dutifully purchases Stove Top Cornbread stuffing and then proceeds to heavily doctor it in a manner suggested by an enormous regional Italian cookbook (assorted fruit!) that has guided him since the early 1980s.
For my part, I will be consumed with warring needs. On the one hand, I feel I must get a snapshot of Felix wrestling with a turkey leg, and on the other I must be prepared to do battle with my terrier, who has a penchant for thievery and is too bold by half when food is involved.
(Oh, and for those of you with new pups: I have been warned by my vet multiple times to keep the dog away from turkey skin. It's too fatty and apparently can give dogs some digstive distress that no one wants to deal with on a cold November evening.)
Cheers
