You should have seen the celery in the market today.  It was fantastic!  Normally we get these spindly things that are a sorry excuse for celery.  But today they were perfect for making stuffed celery.  Which is why I needed them.  We were contacted yesterday by a group of five adults and one baby to see if they could stay here at Thanksgiving and share the meal with us.  So of course this necessitated a quick run to town for turkey and all the trimmings.  I went to three stores to find little packets of walnuts for the Waldorf salad.  That comes from my families Thanksgiving dinner.  The turkey is not a butterball admittedly, but it is better than nothing, which is what every other store was selling.  It came in from France and will have to suffice.  I may add a chicken just to be sure.  We are going to have apple, pumpkin, mango, and lemon meringue pies.  Yum!  I can hardly wait.  Thanksgiving is a uniquely American holiday.  You cannot celebrate the day with anyone but Americans.  So Happy Thanksgiving all you Americans!
