Weekend Lounge, November 29-30, 2014

Good morning everyone! Have been busy getting ready for our Thanksgiving meal, which is today! Turkey in the oven smells delicious! A beautiful November day here, about 45 degrees later. Good for a walk after a big meal, and the guys might get the 4-wheelers out and the kids can ‘air out’ outside! That reminded me of JK!! LOL!
Hope to check in on everyone later! Morning Joan!

Good Morning Joan and Kittyzee,

KZ- In tribute to the delicious aromas in your kitchen http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a13/janedodo/hB7E55E01_zps11f01bcf.jpeg

Good Idea Joan! Shelters always need gently used towels and small blankets (that fit in a cubby). Treats and toys are always desired but make sure the toys are machine washable.

I’m planning my shopping today. I may go to the local Kristkindel festival.

Have a Happy
PG 🙂

….. I will put the little chef kitties to work chopping veggies and prepping for the tetrizzini …. I need veggies sauteed, cheese grated, bowls stirred …. I’m sure KZ will have some ‘chores’ that she needs help with too 🙂

NOT real happy with the cell phone store at the moment …. tried to upgrade (which I have 3 lines eligible) ….. but they are apparently caught in a paperwork tangle, and it’s very frustrating!

….. back to my cooking agenda ….. ‘calgon take me away’ …..

Woo weeee I’m tired! PG, that kitten is adorable! I think I saw out of the corner of my eye, little kittens scurrying around (I think Willow helped them thru the wormhole!) trying to sneak pieces of turkey! Goodness, we had so much good food, and everybody brought containers to take home and share! Our menu was turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, escalloped oysters, green bean casserole, cranberry salad, sweet potato casserole, broccoli salad, rolls, iced tea. Pumpkin pie and pumpkin cake and coffee for dessert. It was so nice here today also, the kids got to ride 4 wheelers and be outside. There’s no mud, but they did find some dirt to get into, LOL! Except Avery, she doesn’t know how to do that yet, so she had to stay in with the adults and get kisses!
AV, sorry about the snafu at the cell phone store, is there anything more frustrating? Your tetrazzini sounds delicious, although the ‘calgon take me away’ at this point in my day sounds even better!
Joan, great idea about donating things to shelters. Around here they are always needing cleaning supplies. I never thought about blankets and towels.
My dogs were in heaven as they got some turkey scraps and some gravy on their kibble. Outside kitties got turkey skin, and some juices too. Everyone around here is stuffed it seems!

Joan, this cranberry salad was my mom’s recipe. It’s made with jello, cranberries, an orange, celery, walnuts, apples, it’s so yummy! You really can’t taste the cranberries much, they are chopped so well in the food processor. It’s refreshing this time of year. I buy bags of cranberries and throw them in the freezer, then make it in the summertime too.
I’ve never made the sauce, just had the canned. I like it well enough, except it seems to always taste like the can!

Well KZ, that’s my “ladies’ man” Dorry for ya! He will now add Miss Leona to his list of “conquests”, most do don’t reciprocate his ardour LOL! Am I to assume that you have a Basement Cat as Bowtie? Purrfect! I love black kitties – shhh don’t let Dorry know! “Dorry, I love silver gray kitties the best” *Phew!*
Deb, having caught up on your raccoon incident, this one’s for you – all in good fun of course! 😉

Lol love the picture of the Raccoon and the kitty 🙂 KJ, that would be just like Kitty to sit and look at the Raccoon, he keeps checking the backdoor and our window in the door is just like the picture but almost to the floor so kitties can comfortably look outside 🙂

Jan, was windy here this morning too and quite warm even, right now at 1:30 it is 54F/12C so not too bad.

Dang backyard kitty, I put a container out there with a nice pillow and it’s a good windbreak, do you think he will lie in it….NO! He has dug out enough of the dirt to make a little round bowl indentation and that is where he curls up during the day, silly kitty. But he does eat the cat food I have left out there.

I wrote down how to do the Amazon thing that you sent me Jan, now do I know where I put it….NO, seems I would lose my head if it wasn’t attached, sigh.

Figured out the Amazon thing but it wouldn’t let me put the book and the magazine I ordered for Rebecca on there, sigh.

Mosquitos are so flipping annoying, yay for the Clap! I have a nice plant growing on the back porch to deter mosquitos 🙂 Those dry winds are the worst, we used to get the Santa Ana winds in California (well they still do) and they were yuck to say the least, didn’t take long to get tired of them too.
