Thanksgiving week: catch your breath

On this Monday, my holiday week is on recess break. I vaguely consider cooking the cranberries, but there's more room in the fridge drawer where they reside than on the fridge shelves where the turkey hogs much of what's available, so I let that idea slip by. Besides, it's a cold but beautiful day...

(Breakfast with Dance who likes to sit by my plate, much to Ed's disappointment. I ignore her, she comes anyway. That's okay - Ed's reach is long.)

 

And, too, I have a Zoom party with my Polish friends. Both the weather and the get-together require that I turn away from what's in the kitchen and instead take in a few deep breaths of the Great Outdoors and, too, practice my underused these months social skills with my pals.

Where do Ed and I walk? Oh, just our local park. But the crispy clear air! And the view of the setting sun (we put the walk off that late into the day)! -- sublime.

I'll return to the turkey and company tomorrow. Today, I take a pause.
