Happy Thanksgiving Everyone, Happy Thanksgiving
It has begun. Tis the season.
Sawbones tells me when my annual physical rolls around mid Jan. 2024, if I have added more that five pounds, she's gonna strangle me. Or, do my prostate exam ... though my ear.
I make it. every year, but that's by reducing portion size, reducing frequency.
The "joys" of getting old.

My wife and I are staying home this year. I made a pumpkin pie and she made pumpkin bars. She’s cooking the turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and I will make the gravy and do the dishes.View attachment 628979It has begun. Tis the season.

We’re hosting a progressive dinner for New Year’s Eve and that’ll be decadent…
What started out as just me, my wife and son. Now our daughter came home so one more. Then my wife and daughter “adopted” the family that my daughter nannied for last summer. Great people but only the dad and 10 month old can come as his wife is doing her residency and has to work today. So Turkey and all the fixings. Plus I decided smoke an apple bourbon maple pork loin. I am the meat cooker. Turkey has to be traditional, but I can experiment on the pork loin and such to come up with different flavor profiles.

Circle of life.
Grandkids both have enough teeth now, and they won't swallow things they shouldn't, and I still have all my real teeth, I discovered I still like these, just like 6 decades ago.
grandpa can therefore "knock down" a few (under adult supervision-for them & me - they are syrupy sweet) with my two toddler/pre-school grandkiddies.

Old Man with a Hat
Like rum raisin I only get two per year - little bitty container is also ~1,000 calories. That"ll take a old man like me 2 days to metabolize.
Reminds me of my favorite bar: White Chocolate from Israel! But, the last time I was there in 2019 I couldn't find a single bar!!!
Most post about food. Here's a Swingline 333. Could not resist the temptation, lucky low bid on eBay last weekend, got it today. That is the seller's hand, not mine.
PS: thank you for the idea, @Imperialist67
Here's another angle (not mine), more about it here:

off the path a bit. stumbled accross looking for other stuff.
Literally an "old man with a hat", I still like glass packs, though havent used them new for decades.
My formative years were spent in glass packs -- (Cherry Bombs", "Thrush", etc.) . My refined (neighbors to think about in suburbia) years were in Flowmasters
only a couple things with glass packs anymoe anymore, again I am a FlowMaster 40-50 kinda guy.
Although I fell into a stash of DynoMaxes 20 years ago for my police cars, cuz that growling sound they made to make the kids scatter ar night when police cruised - no lights, 5 mph, smokin cigarettes -- the urbab neighborhood).
this was Detroit, post riots. Dunno what mufflers on their C bodies, but I remember that awesome, RB sound.
Four minutes, A&B comparison, in a 440 B body across the pond. See what you think if you got a minute.
