We were going to go out for pizza this evening, but it is so cold and rainy that we decided to raid the freezer instead. The kids are having pancakes and veggie sausages, Rockford will probably have a burrito or two and I might have some palak paneer.

In a little while I’m going to peel and cook sweet potatoes while watching “Planes, Trains and Automobiles,” because it is The Finest Thanksgiving Film. “Pieces of April” is also good but is neither available on Netflix nor as an Amazon Prime selection. I think we have a copy, but I don’t have a TV in the kitchen so the sweet potatoes and I can’t watch it. “Grumpy Old Men,” however, is available on Amazon Prime. I might watch it tomorrow with the spinach.

Allons-y, patate douces!
