Thursday 11-27-25 Happy Thanksgiving!!! Thanksgiving Celebration

 

Happy Thanksgiving

 

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. We had a super Thanksgiving. We had a brisk morning with the temperature of 49 degrees and it got up to 63 degrees.

Louise and Alice came up from Round Rock to celebrate Thanksgiving with Larry and me. Louise arrived at 8:30 and left at 1:30. Louise made homemade fudge and peanut butter rolls (Pay Day). She also brought and apple pie for dessert. The pie was very good and so was the fudge and Pay Day. We didn't have the traditional Thanksgiving lunch. We had tacos, Hawaiian dressing, homemade noodles with gravy, relish tray (sweet pickles, stuffed olives, cheddar and pepper jack chucks and ham) and deviled eggs. Of course we had way too much food.

When Louise arrived she had brought one of her Echo Shows and cell phone for Larry to work on. Larry found the Echo Show was going to need to be replaced. He put a new screen saver on the cell phone. Larry also found a screw that fit her Garmin band where the screw was missing.

While Larry was doing his electronic projects Louise and I visited. I played with Alice. We had lunch at 11:00. I kept busy preparing the meal. I had done some of the preparation last night. I made the noodles yesterday and cooked them today. The Hawaiian dressing was a boxed dressing from Aldi so I just had to follow the directions. It was a chicken flavor dressing made with Hawaiian bread, which made it sweeter. The taco meat was already seasoned and we bought it at Aldi. The deviled eggs I prepared the filling last night and just had to stuff the egg with it. Everything was very good.

We had a great Thanksgiving celebration with Louise and Alice.

I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Free Cell Adventure of 20 games. It took me 2 hours, 21 minutes and 27 seconds, which put me in 16th place in my group. I played Angry Birds and Friends and Angry Birds 2.

While I played my Solitaire games Larry played pinball. He played four games, which were Magic Pinball, Dracula, Blizzard of Ozz and Space Lord.

Later on I played seven games of pinball. They were Magic Pinball, Dracula, Blizzard of Ozz, Space Lord, Dark Chaos, Slimer! Ghostbusters and Big Bang Bar. I didn't play too well but had fun.

In the evening we watch the movie Lee, it is a British biographic movie about war correspondent Lee Miller. She travels to the front lines of World War II. It was a good movie. When Larry went to bed I watched Sherlock Holmes from our collection of movies. I ended up doing 1,000 steps.
