Here is a quickie, some good advice from my grandmother:

25 years ago a bunch of theatrical kids put on a play about the first Thanksgiving. All the moms were quick to point out that the women of the colony planted, harvested, cooked, cleaned, and did everything but kill the turkey. "Women of the Colony" became a catchphrase often used in connection with our colossal meals.

Oh man that’s hilarious. I remember once I went to pick papa up to chauffer him around while he ran errands for the day. He had a list of maybe a dozen stops to make, things to pick up, etc. At the last second, he decided it was too icy for him to go out, so I volunteered to go on my own. He took out his pencil and started crossing off all the things he said were really unnecessary. The resulting list was nine crossed off items and:
Beer
Vermouth
Box wine
You know, the necessary stuff.
