that sounds really good, Laura. I saw a recipe that had a gravy for roasted cauliflower

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The meds are handled. And I took a nap with the dog.
Cindy, that story is hilarious.
Oh hey, Pangs. Might have to watch that tonight.
BBC America is running a Sherlock marathon today. It's a bit hit and miss, but I do love Scandal in Belgravia.
Sparky, I'm so sorry about your uncle.
Also, you're having your roof removed in January?!
My condolences to you and your family, Sparky.
Oh, Sparky, condolences to you & yours.
My day was just stupid. Got to work, realized I'd left my food at home. No problem, we have a grocery store, 2 restaurants and food trucks just downstairs (not to mention riches a couple blocks away.) At which point, I discover I've left my wallet at home as well. Went home to work from there the rest of the day, cramps hit.
Otoh, after I clean up the leaves tomorrow, I'm gonna go to Maria's family TG & talk too much.
I'm so sorry Sparky.
I went for a massage today. I had a cold about 4-5 weeks ago and I've dealing with some pulled muscles or a misaligned rib in my back ever since. Then my massage therapist said, "I can feels something on your rib. I can't diagnose, but I think you might have a fracture."
I rebooked at the end of my massage, and her next available time outside my work hours is in March. I'm never giving her name to another person.
Most of my cooking I am going to delegate to the kids tomorrow. I'll supervise and have all the ingredients and recipes already assembled. My back has been in misery the last few days. I did manage to put up 4 long tables and cover them with brown paper set the tables. 12 people so I took the long tables from work and assembled them in a square so everyone would be facing each other. Forgot to get table cloths so I used the brown paper rolls they have been using for painting. Looks fine!
I did cook the cranberry relish so it could chill overnight and put together the broccoli lasagna for baking tomorrow. I'm patting myself on the back for having the foresight to make sure my boys could cook! They will be fine doing the rest. GF doesn't have any real cooking experience, but Bobby and I have been teaching her.
I'm exhausted and rambling. However, I do have to add that msbelle has most awesome hair.
Oh, sparky, I'm so sorry.
Today I worked half the day, picked up the turkey, dropped it at my sister's house, picked apples from her tree, ate lunch, took a nap, walked the dog, made a pie, had a friend over, binged 8 episodes of S1 of The Good Place (it holds up), made a second pie, pre-made some gravy for tomorrow, ate half a pizza, drank half a bottled of wine, saw the friend off, cleaned the kitchen.
I probably shouldn't have had so much wine, because I'm going running with my niece in the morning. Argh.
Tomorrow I have to: feed the dog, run with my niece, make stuffing, stuff the turkey, get the turkey into the oven, take a shower, help get the house ready, then relax until the turkey comes out because I've done all my bits of the meal. Easy-peasy.
I hope all the Buffistas have a lovely Thanksgiving if you celebrate.
