Don't you feel sorry for me?<br /><br />Seriously, I hope you both had a great time, scrumptious food, wonderful company, and I'll catch up with my turky-eating at Christmas time.The Atavisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12529157597486952484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931353.post-37453767746462710522006-11-23T21:31:00.000-05:002006-11-23T21:31:00.000-05:00I am thankful for you, atavist.

It's been a joy to visit you, and to have you visit me, with such an interesting exchange of ideas.<br /><br />(By the way, I like the picture of the turkey at the top of the post. My beloved Canadian mother once made a leg of lamb for Thanksgiving here in America, which annoyed my cousins to no end.)Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931353.post-71056877999027470012006-11-23T16:08:00.000-05:002006-11-23T16:08:00.000-05:00Thank you.
