I've been to the grocery store every day for the past week. Finally, except for salad and bread, the house is stuffed and ready for Thanksgiving cooking and then a weekend of company.
I guess most people don't have the time or inclination to shop early. At Safeway yesterday, it looked like they were getting ready for a last minute shopping siege. You could hardly move, the aisles were so full of pallets and boxes and people frantically stocking shelves. Glad I'm done.
We've been eating a lot of chili, soup and stew lately, nothing wrong with that, but mine eye was caught by a value package of New York steak. Sunset is 4:20, dark at 5, but I fired up the grill anyway and cooked a summer feast in the chilly dusk while the moon rose. It was the last day of our beautiful stretch of dry weather. Thanksgiving will be a soaker.
