An Alternative Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is around the corner. It is a food and family extravaganza. The grocery stores are locked and loaded. There are many places that offer prepared Thanksgiving dinners. And, for those who want to forego cooking and cleaning and catering to relatives that they have to pretend to like, there are many restaurants that will be serving Thanksgiving dinners. I have exercised this option successfully many times and had some exceptional Thanksgiving dinners. Had my fill, paid the bill and then went home to watch football and chill.

What is a Friend?
What is a Friend? In the tapestry of life, threads interlace, A bond beyond words, a warm embrace. A friend is a mirror, reflecting the soul, In laughter and sorrow, they make us whole. Through storms of despair and moments of cheer, They walk by our side, always near. In silence, they listen, with hearts open wide, A shoulder to lean on, a trusted guide. With secrets shared under starlit skies, Their presence brings comfort, like the sun's rise. In joy, they celebrate, in pain, they console, A friend is a treasure, a heart's true goal. Through the ups and downs, the twists of fate, A friend is the love that will never abate. In the journey of life, hand in hand we stand, For in the embrace of friendship, we find our true land. So cherish the moments, both big and small, For a friend is a blessing, the greatest gift of all. In the garden of life, they bloom and they grow, A bond that is timeless, in our hearts, they glow.

The Deviled Egg Can Be Devilish
Today is National Deviled Eggs Day and deviled eggs are being mentioned as great appetizers for the Thanksgiving feast. They are definitely tasty and colorful and when piped, food art…but starting off a family and friends celebration with sulfur bombs??? Do you really want the answer to the question “How was your Thanksgiving?” to be “It was a gas – literally and figuratively!” Of course, once the tryptophan from the turkey and the overeating kicks in and the snoring starts, who is going to notice.

Kodak Film and Saveloys
Those who didn’t grow up in Australia during the 70s and 80s may not be familiar with the words: ‘Winfield’ (a brand of cigarettes) ‘dingo’ (a type of wild dog) ‘fag’ (cigarette) ‘saveloy’ (a deep-fried battered sausage, also known as a ‘battered sav’).
