Dish Network has some free movie channels this weekend and I'm taking advantage of it. Not all their premium channels are commercial-free, but these are. I'm catching up on movies I missed over the years: The Addams Family first movie - much better than Addams Family - Family Values, which seems to re-run on TV all the time. And American Hustle with Amy Adams. And the Australian version of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, which is ever so much better than the American version.

We had turkey dinner part two for lunch today, and I'm not sure what to make for supper. I'd like to make turkey sandwiches with lettuce and mayonnaise and cranberry sauce and leave it at that. My turkey, which stewed in a brining solution overnight, came out with all the attributes a turkey is supposed to have. This is what we live for, isn't it?

My recipe for sweet potato turkey pie was published in the local paper today. The crust is sweet potatoes, and the rest of it is diced cooked turkey and left-over vegetables and some gravy. I'll have to cook up some more sweet potatoes if I decide to make it, and I suppose I'll do that. We'll have it tomorrow.

The weather here is lovely: 70 some degrees, ten degrees warmer than usual for this time of year. I don't know how the shopping madness has gone - we don't participate in that, but on the news last night people were talking about lining up at midnight Wednesday night in order to get into the store at 6 pm on Thanksgiving Day.
