i love this photo!

So I take it a Tofu Turkey day?

Thanks for the kind words about the photo. SWMBO bought the stem of mutant, pygmy, malodorous, cabbages (I don't care for them), and thought that pairing them with peppers would make a nice centerpiece for the table. Over dinner, it triggered a wonderful conversation about antioxidants, which is, I suppose, better than a discussion about politics, as there were sharp knives on the table, and my beloved was thoughtful enough to invite people of a very different political persuasion to join us in giving thanks. I've never been so thankful for wine in my life.

No, no Tofu Turkey. Or any other form of tofu. I've eaten enough tofu in my life to know I never want to eat it again. Which is hard when your better half is Asian!

The razors are Schicks with Revere handles-the one on the left is an injector, the two on the right take Trac II carts, and I thought they looked enough like silverware that it would make for a shave-themed place setting.

Thanks again!
