my daughter has long been a fan of anne taintor's calendars. i tried getting one last year but they were sold out, gone. so, this year i ordered it early, even before it was available, and it arrived last week. the photos and captions in this calendar are the complete antithesis of martha's mantra(s). for those of us who remember the 1950s, the pages bring a chuckle and not a small amount of irony. while i don't consider myself a feminist, i do realize there are men still out there who think a woman should stay home, barefoot and pregnant. i was never one of those women and even less so since i've been single for 28 years. perhaps one of the reasons i've never remarried or even dated is that i'm just too independent, not an altogether bad thing. **** a wonderful thanksgiving meal with family. our turkey just over 9 pounds so after dinner and doling out some leftovers, we have only a little left. cut off the drums and wings prior to cooking and plopped them in the freezer for another time as we were afraid of having too much left over. soup is all made as well. so guess we'll be having fish for dinner very soon!
Looks like the calender is worth a few chuckles. : )
