Cooking & Baking

A small turkey, roasted with stuffing. Candied sweet potatoes. Gravy. Cranberry sauce (whole berry). DH always wants some kind of 'whomp' roll, so I made crescents. (That's the tube kind you 'whomp' open. Or at least you used to - now they want you to press a spoon on it and it never works. I always end up using a knife.)

And pumpkin pie for dessert. I called up to DH to let him know I was closing off the kitchen so Fast Eddie didn't try to play sous chef while I messed with crust dough. DH pretended to be hurt, calling down "Ok, you don't want to talk to me. That's all right, I'm fine, I'll just sit up here by myself and watch tv." I called back "Well, we could always just skip the pie".

Dead silence. Followed by "Don't even joke about that".

I swear, someday I'll really strip the dinner down and just serve stuffing and pie. He'd be fine with that. Lots less dishes, too.
