Not my story, but am sharing someone else’s at the end of this Thanksgiving Day.

Sweet dreams to all.
Why does that story sound so much like AI?

Didn't really notice it on first read, but I can sort of see how it might come across that way. Maybe it's the "it was a dark and stormy night" opening...

I forgot to take pictures of this year's Thanksgiving dinner spread.

For turkey, I used Costco's Turkey Dinner Kit this year. The stuffing was too salty for my liking, but overall it turned out OK.
Thanksgiving is more festive this year because the extended family entered a phase where a new generation of children are entering their "cute" years. This year's Thanksgiving was otherwise rather uneventful.

Sharon used an Aldi stuffing mix, fortified with mirepoix and herbs.
It was great!

The very same!

It's actually pretty good for a box stuffing. We have it as an occasional treat (Mr wtg adds extra stuff like Sharon does), though less frequently since I turned into the UPF Nazi....

Yup.

I looked at the ingredients list on the bag and as UPF foods go it’s not the worst but the stuffing I used to make is much cleaner. I start by making cornbread, for example.
But I’m not allowed to cook much any more and unless I’m doing dishes Sharon really rather I stayed out of her kitchen. I have half a shelf in the fridge where I’m allowed to store “my food” and if it doesn’t fit I put it in the basement freezer. By the end of next year I plan to have a proper kitchen in the basement which should make things easier in winter. In summer I cook outdoors.
We’ve been married 50 years. This is how it’s done.
