Thanksgiving
Nov. 22nd, 2018 10:01 pmI slept in this morning, and so I will soon feast upon a late Thanksgiving dinner of black bean chili with guacamole, salad, a few last ginger snaps left in the bag, and a pair of cashew butter cups (left over from Halloween, when not very many trick-or-treaters came). Perhaps the beans, and definitely the tomatoes, acorn squash, peppers, and maize in the entree are from the New World, as are avocados and chocolate.
In a nod to tradition, I made cranberry-orange relish a couple of evenings ago, and ate some of it for lunch, in lieu of another fruit. I’m planning on making pumpkin pie soon, maybe next week.
And speaking of giving thanks, I thank whatever gods there may be that, flawed as our judiciary may be, it is at least functioning, independent, and endeavoring to provide equal justice under law whether the federal judges in question are Republican or Democratic appointees.
