Joyeux Action de Graces
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you ... the harvest is in (well, almost ... Saskatchewan farmers have about 85% of the grain in the bin ... the rest will have to wait until the blizzard is done:D) and it's time to kick back, gorge on turkey and pumpkin pie, good Canadian beer, wine, and whiskey, and be thankful that we live in a prosperous, free, safe country.:alright: Vive le Canada.

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
They're still getting the grain in but there's a blizzard?
Going to be a long winter? Well, enjoy it anyway, Eric. |

Thank you Margaret and Dave. We're cooking our Thanksgiving turkey on Sunday with traditional stuffing and all the trimmings. After this long and very hot, dry summer I must say the cooler weather is welcome. The leaves are starting to fall like snow - but I hope the white stuff holds off for a while yet :)

It's been a lovely day, although there's a frost warning tonight (got to bring in the remaining tomatoes and cover the Kohlrabi.) We went for a nice drive in the countryside, and enjoyed a good turkey dinner with mashed turnip, scalloped potatoes, German style red cabbage, broccoli pie, beet root, mushroom gravy and of course, stuffing. There's plenty to share with our elderly neighbours and some to feed ourselves for a few days. Miss Pris was eagerly awaiting for some turkey meat to appear in her food bowl. She's well fed now and happily asnooze. Hubby and I are hoping to stay awake for tonight's Clinton/Trump debate (Good grief! Can this get any worse?) but we'll see. Happy Thanksgiving Eric and all my Canadian friends and family. Thank you and Happy Autumn to my AccyWeb friends :)

I send you my respect, Walter. My Mum is a vegetarian, one of my nieces is too. I'm made of weaker stuff, sadly.

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
I could be vegetarian except for my love of bacon.
If ever I am in a coma the two aromas that would revive me is the smell of frying bacon and the scent of toast. If they waft that under my nose and I do not rise, then to be sure....I'm dead! |

I once almost hit a barn door from 3 feet away using a 6.5x52mm Carcano model 91/38 carbine ... admittedly, it had a telescopic sight, and was in superb condition: never before been fired, and only dropped once.:D By the way, you wouldn't happen to have been in Dallas on November 22, 1963;)

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
Can't understand vegetarians, normal folk when they make the mistake of inviting one over will panic and find an alternative to what they are eating.
Usually a nut cutlet, (how bored veggies must be with that), BUT, when a veggie makes the mistake of asking an omnivore over for a meal, they don't go out of their way to offer a bacon sarnie, or just one plateful of something dripping in gravy, no, no, no, we are offered a nut cutlet! (how bored are meat eaters with that), I love and savour the flavour of meat, I enjoy the warm hot fat of something sacrificed for my table dribbling down my chin, I don't need to be told an animal died, I know, I've just eaten it. |

Like you I'm puzzled about that hytalian rifle job I can't envisage any one doing better than you did, with one of those crappy things, who ever shot Kennedy never used a bloody carcano, and the ammo iyself was not much better. I think some one is hiding sumat, and tellin porky pies. |
