turkey day—the one day a year that i agree to eat meat. and it was not just any old meat. this meat i ate was free range organic turkey from vermont prepared by the skilled mary ford of lincoln, massachussetts, mother to david ford of the main street musuem as well as warren (slugo) ford. libation, cheese, crackers, white fish pate and gluten free twists preceded the meal of the organic turkey, onions in cream, mashed potatoes, beans, and a plate of relishes plus cranberry sauce. this was all followed by three pies: pumpkin, mincemeat and a chocolate walnut with ice and whipped cream.
after dinner several of us simply lay on our backs while daisy, the dog, trampled about us licking fingers and faces. david and i spent the night at slugo and denise's beautifully renovated home in newton where rosco, their dog, entertained us with his winsome glances. this morning we arose at six and headed north to vermont, where i sit this moment.
