We had another outing yesterday as a family as there were two more viewings at our house.
First the hoomans went to Bob Evan’s and ate brunch. The niece and me stayed quietly in the car hoping they’d bring us a morsel.
Not a single scrap but I know Ma had bacon because I could smell it. I can also tell you Dad had no meat but the bro’s burger must have been made with half a cow. I nose you know.
Next up we went to Meijer to get the Thanksgiving turkey. In fact we got two because they were such good value. Can you believe 39 cents a pound! One is now in the fridge thawing for Thursday and the other is in the freezer waiting for Santa.
Bacon was on offer in a BOGOF and Ma had a coupon for that and for sausage and for milk so the car took on the additional weight of another medium sized dog.
With time still to kill and no parsnips to be had at Meijer we made a trip to Trader Joe’s. Truth be told Ma needed to stock up on her fizz that she drinks like lemonade. We got that and the parsnips but it took FOREVER. Half the population of Columbus must have been shopping at TJs.
The bro was sweating a bit because he had work so when Ma eventually emerged with her haul we took off swiftly with not a centimeter to spare in our car.
We reached home just in time to unload and dispatch the Bro to his job.
The rest of us then put all our purchases and signs of life safely away and swung into a siesta.
Soup was served for dinner as we had a lot of it in the freezer and needed to get something out so we could squeeze the bird in.
On reflection I’m so glad I’m a dog and not a turkey.
