Well we had a nice Thanksgiving dinner last night. Karl and Carl, both sets of parents (minus Leann and Jay) and Bailey and Beau, Vicky and Jeanne. Turkey was fine. Then to the movies to see “Fantastic Mr. Fox.” and we were all knocked out by it. I was just beside myself. I felt like i’d been waiting my whole life for that movie. We emerged from the theater glowing and stunned by the poignancy and virtuosity of the work of art we had experienced. Several times during the movie I felt a chill at the deliciousness of the thing. Great Thanksgiving. Then L and C and K and I went back to the ranch and had a second meal, mini plate so to speak. Maybe even better than the first. Flirting with the idea of vegetarianism is always best AFTER the holidays.
