Husbands!

Next time, either leave Josh at home or swear him to silence. Thanksgiving shopping with hubby is really *not* going to improve my general grumpiness about the menfolk wanting a traditional Thanksgiving without doing any of the work! Add to that, Josh volunteered us to make 2 huge pans of Green Bean Casserole and buns to serve 30 for the Single Sailors Thankgsiving.

Notable Quotes:

"You're buying too many French Beans" - no, I bought just enough.
"You're buying too many rolls" - see above.
"That's too many boxes of stuffing" - *snort*
"Why do we need *this* again?" - see above.
"Do we really need all this?" (looking at the cart) - yes, shut up.
"OMG, that's our grocery bill?" - see above.

Its a small, informal three person Turkey Day. Snacks for before the meal - olives, chips, nuts, etc. Then one turkey, two starchy sides, two vegetable sides and one pie. And of course stuff to support leftovers during the weekend - turkey pot pie, turkey sandwiches, etc.

Mine actually moved his butt away from his computer, ran the vacuum in one room and sorted his own mail off the kitchen island. It truly IS a miracle, and we aren't even on 34th St!! Happy Turkey Day to all y'all -- :D
