Thanksgiving Weekend At Home, Part 3.......

Sun 11/28: Once again, the Usual Weekend Morning Routine -- get up with The Girl while The Wife sleeps in. Watched the Koala Brothers, the Wiggles, and part of Higglytown Heroes on the Disney Channel before The Girl started shoting "Off! Off!". Put on some more videos for her. (My daughter's becoming a little couch potato.)

This afternoon, it was another trip out to the horses at Serendipity Stables. This time, it was Serrey who diagnosed The Girl. Through her handler and interpreter Michele, she diagnosed M as having an upset stomach and suggested organic chicken broth and rice for M, and herbal tea baths. Sweet Adeline did some work on me -- she identified gallbladder and liver problems (yes, I'm a choleric), and suggested milk thistle and herbal tea baths for me.

After the trip to the farm, we stopped at Carfagna's Market to get some sausage and other yummy Italian goodies I can't find elsewhere, like dried figs, their famous sausage, and a pannetone bread for the holidays. We also stopped in to visit our friend Carol.

Dinner was at the local DQ.

And I'll be getting together with my out-of-town friend Rachel tomorrow (Monday) afternoon for lunch.

Movie Quotes meme......

Blame browngirl for this one. :-) Contribute to her thread, or reply to this post.

Post a favorite line from a film here. Any film. Don't tell me what film it is. Then go tell someone else to do it, or pimp it in your LJ or something. It will be great--Charge of the Non Sequitur Brigade.

Here are quotes from two films.

"I'm your father, Luke. Give in to the Dark Side of the Force, you knob!"

And here's the other.

"Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days."

Lunch with uk_kay_kay.....

This afternoon, I got together from one of my out-of-country friends who was back in the States visiting family and friends. I first knew Rachel, aka "Kay-Kay", from the old Living City BBS (now defunct). She married a guy from Scotland, and moved over there.

We went to the Quaker Steak & Lube in Beavercreek, OH. I had a single order of hot chicken wings (they make 'em just like they do in Buffalo -- moist, meaty, and saucy!).

There was a lot of catching up to do; the last time I saw her was in '96. She showed me pictures of her house, both interior and exterior. She got to see my house and meet the cats. Unfortunately, The Wife and The Girl weren't there to meet her. Hopefully she'll be able to make a return trip something this week before she flies back to England.

I also found out she has an LJ, but hasn't made many entries. Her LJ name is uk_kay_kay. Give her a warm welcome!
