No matter which way you look at it, thanksgiving takes at least 4 sticks of butter

My sister is a rock climber so she made everything from scratch. This was for 12 people in their cabin in Kentucky. She's been working on it forever, she's a great cook without being vegan or obnoxious about it like me.

We went over to Kellie's aunt and uncles house for xmas dinner.  Her family is Swedish so diner was Swedish themed.  We had palt (which is a ball of mashed potatoes and oatmeal with a ground pork filling and as far as the research I've done they are preparing it wrong so it is terribly pasty and bland.  I could think of so many ways to actually make it good but I keep my mouth shut), potato sausage which is pretty good if not a little bland, and meatballs with a gravy.  Her mom does a fantastic job with this dish.  Delish every year.  Kellie brought a cucumber salad which was great too.

Her brother made a mockery of prime rib.  Everything seemed to be just about done and he sliced the roast about 3/4 inch thick to soon so it sat and got cold along with everything else while there were too many damn people in the kitchen getting in the way trying to find plates and forks.  eesh!  I'm a stickler about having things all come out at the same time so as to eat a hot fricken meal for fucks sakes.  I was climbing the walls trying to keep quiet so I just sat on the couch with more alcohol and resigned myself to cold food.

Her aunt and uncle are pretty cool.  Uncle works for The Blazers so he travels quite a bit and was in Nawlins recently and picked me up this cookbook.  Pretty kitschy but some good stuff too.  Lots of recipes with catsup or mayo as a base.  Things like aspics and tuna molds and tinned shrimp meat.  It came out in '67 so....

So my breakfast routine has been severely altered at work since we've been expanding.  Normally I'm here by myself for an hour before anybody else shows up excluding customers.  But it's cold and wet in the mornings so customers don't start showing up until 11 ish anyways.  So I normally come in and make the coffee and popcorn then I heat up my breakfast and log on to see what you people are doing and just generally relax.  But noooooo.  I get here and there's friggin kids and dogs running around in their pj's making noise and messes.  The owner wants to chat me up and her Icelandic dad likes to rant about Fox news to me in his super heavy accent and I'm always saying huh?

Why are there cat food flavors like "tender turkey Tuscany with long grain rice accented with garden greens in an elegant savory sauce" and not song sparrow bits and grass blades in a chickadee gravy.

Probably because those flavors are tested on and then purchased by human beings.
Not everyone is as open-minded (and literal friendly) as you and I.

Personally, if pet food was labeled like that, it would be easier for me to know what my pets would like and I would stop dipping into their food on the way home from the store. I'm an occasional sucker for advertising and tender turkey Tuscany with long grain rice accented with garden greens in an elegant savory sauce still tasted like rotten tuna.

They should make a little moving toy mouse that has attachable little mouse bodies that are filled with food of some sort.  Just set em loose on the floor and watch your cat "catch" it, rip it's guts (food) out and eat it.  Add a little sport to feeding time and keep em sharp.

There was a guy (lady?) on NPR saying he hides food all over the house, to keep his housecats interested. When animals know what time dinner is and where it's getting dropped off, they supposedly get lazy. He has a book about that kind of stuff. The idea is getting big at some zoos too. Make the animals search and work a little, like they would in the wild.
