Grateful is the way to be

I'm sitting here with a pile of ready to go Yule Tales on my left and five manilla envelopes all written up, ready for the post office entities. I always finish the four Canadian folks first cause those travel the furtherest. I will be out and about so I will mail some tomorrow.
I'm grateful that we have enough pennies in the bank to purchase a Harvest Box. There is a local very small store trying to stay afloat. She sells products from local people. You bet the prices are higher than Walmart but you know what? I can drive by the cows that put milk in my cup. I like that. I have not seen the Harvest Box yet- I pick it up tomorrow. I was told that there will be local cream, cream cheese and butter in it plus apples, potatoes, squash, herbs and celery. All produced by folks in my area. This food will help us have a splended Thanksgiving.
Our smoked salmon chowder's salmon was bought from a man who knew the guy who caught the fish. He smoked the salmon himself. (Wer're having chowder for Thanksgiving.) No more turkeys for us. I still remember the hen turkey chirping at the kitchen door for a snack, please.
I'm past due on walking the pups. Ask them. They will loudly agree. They're feeling neglected.

That Harvest Box sounds great. No one here is making anything for Thanksgiving but my friends down below got a food package from their aunt for Thanksgiving so they were kind enough to give me some things as well since they had too much of everything, I thanked the Lord for good friends like that, Only problem is that they also gave me celery and I have no idea what to do with celery, I mean I eat it but ???? I hope the pups enjoyed their walk,

@RasmaSandra I'm glad you have had some holiday cheer. I am not a fan of celery, either. I would chop it into rice stirfries- looks like I will be doing that soon- or peanut butter on celery is tasty. Celery is a weird vegetable. I find it hard to eat. For sure you could chop it fine into your main hot food and eat it that way.

Animals, pets in particular, complain if there schedule is off by even a second. And, we think they can't tell time.
