Happy Tofurky Day!

Frederick and I went for our usual For-Mar turkey trot this morning, and saw a whole flock of very thankful turkeys.  They're not the only turkeys safe from us, however, because:

After seeing a brief video about Tofurkey farms that laid out the reasons for buying Tofurkey for Thanksgiving, Simon insisted we eat this thing.

Everyone is clearly very excited. When trying to convince Thomas (who decided to eat soy-based Chick'N Nuggets instead) to give it a go, Simon said, "It's like slightly soft rubber--only brown." Yeah, I think that sums it up.

Simon models a new Fair Isle sweater knitted by Granny. The color work is PERFECT. (Fear not, Knitters! That sweater will never get thrown in the washing machine no matter how much gravy and cheese sauce Simon spills on it.)

I had made a pumpkin pie (with gf pastry) this morning and set it out on the wood pile to cool since fridge space is at a premium (we must be ever stocked up with food in case another ice storm --> power outage occurs) and while we were eating we saw a very fat squirrel climb onto the wood and go for the pie.

And so another holiday gone by. Tomorrow we buy the Christmas Tree!
