It's a few days past Thanksgiving and we think we've come out of our turkey coma! Margaret hasn't spent too much time sitting at the computer this past week, or doing much of anything else, for that matter! Last Sunday, she took a fluke fall off of Beautiful Bella and cracked a couple of ribs. (Having done this before she knows that only time takes care of this kind of injury.) Thankfully, Larry the kitchen whiz carried on to prepare all the stars of the Thanksgiving meal - the turkey, mashed potatoes, the dressing, and the cranberry relish for the two of us and our best neighbor buddies, Chuck and Christine, who brought the veggies and dessert. It was a fabulous meal with terrific company. We loved our simple table setting, and, we just had to share a photo of the giant (12 1/2 lb) turkey breast that Larry roasted. (When you ask the butcher to cut a breast only for you, you never know how big it's going to be!)
As the weekend draws to a close, Margaret is incredibly grateful for the wonderful care that Larry has taken of her the past week. And, she's also grateful that he has taken on the first stages of our holiday decorating. Even though she's still spending a great deal of time propped against ice packs, the holiday season has begun at Chez McKay-Israel!
