"Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset." Saint Francis De Sales

Turkey & Apple Pie, Black Friday & Casablanca

 


**********

Happy Thanksgiving and hopefully y'al didn't overindulge.

I watched the Macy's Day Parade and enjoyed the floats and the music. 

We had an afternoon dinner and we kept it to a small gathering.
Dee made her famous apple pie, which is always excellent. And our daughter-in-law prepared the main course. It was excellent.

I've ordered a Samsung 27" curved monitor for my hobby room. It's suppose to arrive at the store on Sunday. I also ordered a new chair which is scheduled to arrive at the house on Tuesday. 

Just taking advantage of the "Black Friday" deals.

Casablanca was released on November 26, 1942. 
For those of you not familiar with this great movie, here are some of the great quotes.

"Here's looking at you, kid."
"Round up the usual suspects."
"Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

And, my favorite:

"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine."

I finished a puzzle that my best friend Phil Viverito gave me years ago. 

Actually it was my first attempt.

 Don’t know why I waited until now to complete it. It was not an easy task, but it was a great
 challenge, hopefully providing some healthy activity for my brain.

 It is a “Wentworth Wooden Jigsaw Puzzle” made from “Finnish birch ply.” It represents the
 Norman Cavalry from the Bayeux Tapestry.
