tnxgvng redux

 

This is a good day to repost Arlo Guthrie's Thanksgiving song about Alice and the restaurant. But it's also a new Tnxgving, a much quieter one for me in contrast to the wall-to-wall relatives and 25 sitting down to dinner in the living room. I don't mind upending tradition, however.

So yesterday I drove down to Donna's in TriBeCa and delivered pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce and a chocolate turkey for her grandson Ryan. And she delivered me a Happy Thanksgiving card from Ryan and our old classic dinner roll dough made this year by daughter Fanny. And we had a picnic on the tailgate of the truck. Today, Thanksgiving day, I will cook a chicken, Debby will make stuffing and green beans, and we will deliver each other dinner in the building. 

Yesterday was a really good day for Donna, because many of the pictures from her forthcoming book were set to music by an Italian composer, and the resulting video was dropped by The Guardian and Universal. Please donate to her Kickstarter here. She needs $20,000 more pledged in a week or she doesn't get any money.  You can watch the pictures and listen to the music on You Tube here or in the post below.
