2007 Story Set
| I am somewhat (sort-of) dragging myself back into operation after a very hectic Thanksgiving. And here comes Christmas up the back-stretch. I have no idea about presents since I am buying myself a master-slave cylinder for my clutch and a brake job. I have a small 20lb turkey and bread (rolls) like I made for Thanksgiving have been ordered. Along with apple and pumpkin pie (I had a piece - my second last night - and now I have none for leftovers. I did snag a piece of apple.) By ordered, I mean my son requested that I bake them. From scratch. Sweet potatoes/yams actually maybe (I like them) - perhaps again with Burbon. Little Smokies. Cooked in Burbon. Full-up mystery stuffing (sausage and bacon already in SD in the freezer). I even have green apples in the fridge. Already. Just in case. I will get new spatulas - I broke a piece off in the sweet potatoes or Yams (the orange ones not the yellow ones). I will be careful not to over-fill the food processor (broke a small piece of plastic off and it was of course in the apple slices. I had to check every single slice. Then I called my son (on the road) and told him he had jinxed me - you see- the exploding glass pie is now part of Holiday lore. In fact, they asked for one. A glass pie. Said they wanted the pie to "sparkle" or they wanted to see their face in it and on and on the jokes go. I still remember the horrible feeling of shock and horror at watching my small pie disintegrate in front of my face. And the second dish - the perfect pie - literally get covered in glass. It's a wonder I still cook! So now I am known for plastic pie (food processor) and considered dangerous around the blades (the spatula actually just broke by itself - old age). This year there better be a lot of bourbon! |
