I’m posting this to stay away from the TV (I can’t actually watch the Alabama-Auburn game, just hop in and out of the room like a child who needs a bathroom) and to tell you that the dip front and middle, a recipe Lynne taught me, is CRACK IN A BOWL. Kathy S has become its latest addict.

A Very Compound Thanksgiving
Me, Kathy S, Debby, Tim, and Tom
The menu: turkey and dressing, cranberry sauce, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, corn, rolls.
Later, The Brides arrived with a thermos of freshly brewed coffee to share in our coconut cake, pumpkin pie, and peach pie, along with a snack tray prepared by my sister with cheeses, salami, pepperoni, crackers, and dip.
To keep Kathy and Debby from arguing over who got to do the rest of the dishes, for dessert, we broke out the special paper plates Lynne gave me with my Christmas loot last year, which Lindsey displays here:
I’m not sure if Rhonda is going after peach pie or Bella with her fork.
I have so much to be grateful for–a house full of family and friends, hilarious dogs (Margot managed to get at part of the turkey after dinner), and good wishes from other family and friends throughout the world. It’s a good life.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Among the zillion things I’m grateful for: My sister is here for the holiday.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it, and even if you don’t, I hope you have lots of reasons for gratitude.

Work of Art, 2:6
Working during the night on sections of a brick wall in Brooklyn, Bravo’s Work of Art competitors were asked to create a work that embodied the subversion of street art. Since Lindsey couldn’t ask the Work of Art followers to risk arrest by doing likewise on someone else’s property, she asked us to create a piece of art that met the same criteria. Here’s what I came up with.
For my background, I used a photo I took at the Houston Arboretum in April 2008. During times of stress or frustration, I seek out places like this one. When my mind races with all the things I wish I could change, I come back to this mantra, so I photoshopped it onto the brick wall.
I’m not subversive enough to ever tag someone else’s property. If I did, though, I’d sign it with a ram symbol, like the one here, because I embrace my Aries nature.
