Sarah's Books - Used & Rare

Never make plans. Wing it. Much easier to adjust when things go awry. I'm here in the shop after all. I did hold hands with my family around the table yesterday, and gave great thanks, but other travel plans went end over teakettle when our car broke down. The mechanic across the street from my sister's house now has possession, and we limped back to Bangor in a spare family vehicle we cadged for the weekend. So no island-hopping, and good thing - we heard from my dad after the ferry ride and apparently the sea was rocking and rolling this morning, and many folks on the boat were busy divesting themselves of much of that good food from the day before. On that happy note, for those of us who celebrated yesterday, what dish were you most proud of? We had an organic turkey and trimmings. I brought carrots with ginger and honey, and a creamed leeks and onions dish that my mother is especially fond of. My brother-in-law made a spectacular squash pie, my other sister made swiss chard and garlic. I didn't overeat, and am now looking forward to a leftover turkey/stuffing/cranberry sauce sandwich for supper - my sister made me up a great little sampler pack to bring home. A reward, after (hopefully) after selling a raft of books this afternoon.
