PS I just finished making modifications to the list based on this year's experience. It is printed and will reside under the dining room table pad until next year.

You know me well. LOL It also takes away so many last-minute decisions.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and family! My Happy Place is here once again. The turkey is in the oven, everything is staged, three days of prep are completed, and I'm on the last page of my list, honoring everyone's mother Martha Stewart and the things she's taught me over the years.

My mother called them "stories," too.

I would recommend The Ransom of Mercy Carter. Mercy was a Pilgrim settler as well as my 9th great-grandmother. I didn't write the book, but it's a great YA book about often-untold history.

I tried to do everything right, but it was still an abysmal failure. LOL They sure looked cool on the plant, though.

There's a local queen who reminds me of Charles. Her name is Ann Howe. I love it!

My recent picking. It's all winding down, but I still have a ton of peppers maturing, and the sweet potatoes aren't ready yet. First time growing them. Hope it's not for naught.

We eat a lot of them. I grew them one year, but they were inedible. So bitter, but I've never felt my soil here grew tasty cole crops, anyway.

My tomatoes and tomatillos are still producing, but I planted collards and turnips a while back. They are doing well so far.

I just learned this year that they have corms that sprout. I thought it was all seed-related. They remind me of my childhood (There's a story in my 1st book), but I grow them now to kill Japanese Beetles. They can't resist them.

My tomatoes were on point as well as peppers. Zinnias and four o'clocks won for the flowers.
