It’s Thanksgiving in Canada this weekend which for us means it is never ordinary. In the past Thanksgivings have been marked as travel days to Soularize or just getting back from it. A couple of years ago I slept through Thanksgiving, having spent the night before “sleeping” in a Boston airport and enduring a long flight back to Saskatoon. This year was to be really ordinary and a relaxing couple of days off. When I was at work yesterday evening, I found out a co-workers sister had passed away and so I am now working Sunday and Monday. It should be pretty quiet at the shelter and half-way house this weekend but everytime they tell me it should be quiet, I get swamped. Of course I was looking forward to a big Thanksgiving Turkey dinner at work but that is at the Friendship Inn.
For the Thanksgiving meal on Sunday, we are having over Jerry and Becky along with Lee. As long as I get some butter soaked mashed turnips, I shall be happy.

Happy Thanksgiving back at you, Jordon.
You can have the turnips all to yourself. I’ll take the mashed potatoes any day of the week.
Happy Thanksgiving to all the Canandian Bloggers!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I like to cut up potatoes, turnips and big carrots and bake the chunks together, with a sharp cheddar sauce.
I’ll do that, this Thanksgiving (down here).
I am not sure I have ever had mashed turnips. Down here in Georgia we eat turnip greens. Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends!
