Alright, Alright ALRIGHT ALREADY!
I'm back with the Blog. Back by popular demand. It good to know so many people enjoyed following my trials and tribulations, my joys and foibles....so, here we go again:

TURKEY
There was just enough. There was enough for an Emeril Turkey Pot Pie...It took me three hours to prepare this gastronomic masterpiece. I highly recommend it! I always have problems with pie crusts...sweet or savory...me and crust don't get along. On my apple pie it was pretty..but way too thick. No one could eat the end of the crust...you know, the part that seals the whole kit and kaboodle together. Too thick. PIE. Now thats another entity. No one was eating pie in my house. I am eating too much pie, including now....turkey pie.

Thanksgiving was really good. Everything I cooked came out marvelous. It was very nice having 4 days off to enjoy. I even started re-upolstering my kitchen chairs. woo hoo. Thanksgiving showed them to be just too disgusting for public use. 3 years of goop, soda, juice, pancake syrup, ketchup, soy and spagetti sauce stains on a bed of china blue was just too much to bear. I headed out to the fabric store and bought me some batik paisley and flower print, borrowed Bernie's electric staple gun and got busy.

I am all PMS-ey right now. I feel insecure and needy. I hate when this happens. I was all uncomfortable today. Bernie asked what he could do for me when I am feeling this way. He's so wonderful. Its great that I can tell him what I am feeling and he acknowledges me, doesn't just blow it off. I'm not used to having someone around that I can count on, someone who plans for the future, and means it...not just a bunch of words. He is genuine. I love him more than words can express. Look at his eyes. I love to listen to his voice. I love that he is affectionate, even in front of my family...he will kiss me for no reason. I want to make him happy...yet I know his happiness come from making me happy. His smile. He nods his head when he is satisfied.
