Deb's Lunch ... and Dinner and Breakfast too

Thanksgiving weekend as smiley/frownie

November 29, 2017 by ds83473@gmail.com

The jam cookies are done! and there’s a lot of them, 250+

My weight is up 1/2 pound.

We went and got our wedding rings and the jeweler was mean to us. That’s smiley/frownie style – but (unfortunately?) I am a grownup, so I can’t leave it there. We had a gift certificate that had expired in August of 2016, and the jeweler was very unaccommodating. Granted the money had already been donated to a worthy charity that we in fact both support. Granted, we were obviously buying the two cheapest rings in the store. But there are a lot of jewelry stores, and I think most merchants would have offered us a small discount, like 5% or 10%, in recognition that were actually shopping in their store, not someone else’s.

We went to see Thor Rangnorak and it was appropriately silly. And we stayed for all the false endings.

We had turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce sandwiches on Saturday (after Thor) and home made Primanti Bros sandwiches with some of the best oven fries I’ve ever made, for the Packer game.

Packers lost but not as bad as they could have.

And now it’s Wednesday, and not really the weekend anymore

I made the Biberli on Monday night, and on Tuesday no cookies at all. Instead I dealt with Thanksgiving leftovers – made veggie broth, made leek tart that I can freeze for a cookie party appetizer, froze the turkey that’s not going into shepherd’s pie tomorrow.

So I guess it’s time to go home and make some cookies. Even though its been too hot the last few days, there’ve been really pretty sunsets to look at if I leave work early enough.
