21 November So Thanksgiving has been settled. I've spent the last few weeks asking Cynthia what the family is doing for the day, were they going to Fran's family in Queens, were they staying home, were they going to Le's, was I going to have to sit in front of the TV all alone with a turkey TV dinner, etc. Well, they're going to Fran's sister's house on the Saturday, for her 50th birthday, and Le's not having a thing, so we're going to do something here at the house. I'm insisting on making my Mom's cornbread and sausage stuffing, as Cynthia says that she doesn't eat stuffing, so she would just do some Stovetop (yech!). I'm also making bread pudding and mashed potatoes, because it's not a holiday meal without bread pudding and I don't trust anyone to make mashed potatoes properly but myself, as potato ricers or sieves might come into question. Mashed potatoes without lumps are inedible, I say. So last night I'm about to go to bed, but I thought I would watch the end of Saturday Night Live first. It was a Thanksgiving sketch, with a family about to start eating, and the father says "I'm so glad to be here with my family on Thanksgiving!" and then this creepy little freaky woman in the corner goes "What about me?!" And Jennifer Aniston says "How do you know Dad, again?" and she says "I work in Accounts Payable! I'm responsible for the company's debt," and she starts talking about her eight cats, and the father mentions that she had overheard him talking about their family dinner and had mentioned that she had no place to go. Several times. I'm suing Lorne for defamation of character! I would never wear a coat from the Burlington Coat Factory...
