No picture as it's very dark and the only bright spots are the full moon outside and the computer screen inside. G and I just stopped at the grocery to buy the items I needed for dinner on Thursday. No parsley or Brussels sprouts. So, I have to run out again on Wednesday. And I bought G the wrong yogurt brand. Duh!
I did get 2 boxes of Nabisco Gingersnaps ($3.99 each) so I can make the crust for the pumpkin cheesecake and for the Pumpkin Dip to take to work as a little treat. I also managed to get two turkey thighs (which nearly cost more than the 14 pound on sale turkey) to roast with vegetables on Wednesday for the base of my turkey gravy. Gravy is the very best part of Thanksgiving dinner, followed by sweet potatoes and stuffing. And cranberry sauce. I got the ingredients for green bean casserole also. What I didn't get was anything specific for dinner on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. I think I'll be shopping in the freezer and cupboard for those meals. I don't have to worry about Friday, Saturday and Sunday meals!!!!
G and I walked the dog this afternoon and then G watered the plants upstairs and I ironed shirts. The dog towels are in the drier. I just have the household bills to pay and then I'm done for the day. I found my pumpkin cheese cake recipe with penciled in remarks (G said I never made one, but obviously I did) so that is good and I bought eggs. Real shell eggs for the cheesecake batter.
It's very, very cold (to me) outside. The ground on our walk was crunchy with frost. I am finding it hard to get warm and stay warm outside of my bed with the linen sheets and heavy down comforter. Linen is an amazing fiber. Within a few minutes of getting into bed, the linen sheets warm up (the room temp is around 50) and I am all cozy and asleep. Winter is here. Ready or not.

If linen didn't require so much ironing, I'd be tempted to buy a bolt of fabric and sew some duvet covers and pillow cases.
I use fitted cotton jersey on the mattresses.
