Taking A Break

I took a little vacation so this is my first post in a week. It was a nice relaxing time and I could have used an other few days but... Thanksgiving was a great day. We found out that my wife's brother and his family were coming early in the week. It was a family event but that is what holiday's are for.

I prefer to make something other than turkey on Thanksgiving. It is okay but I have had turkey every year and last year started grilling marinated pork tenderloin. The only complaints are that we aren't having turkey. They love the tendeloin but the tradition is to much for them (the senior crowd) to get around. I always make two tenderloins. One is marinated in soy sauce, garlic and fresh rosemary. The other is put in straight molasses. This year I smoked them before I finished grilling. Tasty.

We did not go out shopping on Friday. I have done that once and would rather dance with a paper shredder than go through that again. Not being one for crowds, I do not enjoy masses of angry people waiting to get to the cash register so they can hurry to the next store for bargains. I prefer to shop after Christmas for the things that I might have missed. They are usually cheaper and the stores less crowded. Until I have more to say....
