  Thanks girlfriend, I only had a small plate and tried a teaspoon of almost everything. The desserts, mashed potatoes, gravy, and cranberry-jello & pineapple dish I didn't bother. I can't stand cranberries. And tomorrow I'm baking a birthday cake for my daughter and need to go get frosting at Wal-Mart. Thought I'd walk an ex lap around the store for exercise. I'm almost sure around that store has to be close to a mile!

  I am glad you didn't over indulge. I tend to do that and now I am paying for it. That is sweet that you are baking a cake for your daughter. I hope you all had a nice birthday celebration.

  Dear Craftyladyinor,

  This is a great parody poem. Did you write it? It shows real talent. I like it, whoever wrote it.

  Love,

  IN ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION POSTED AT MY POEM "Thanksgiving":

  Posted by PoetWithCancer 8 minutes ago

  Dear Craftyadyinor,

  My holistic physician does not want me to use either processed sugar or sugar substitutes, except something called Stevia. I can use honey, which I like--when I can get it (I have it at home, but a surprising number of restaurants and bars don't have it). I am also allowed to use Turbinado sugar, a form of raw sugar--but it takes so much of it for me to taste sweetness, I just don't use it.

  I do not drink alcoholic beverages. I go to karaoke bars only. While there, I drink a little coffee if it is available. Mostly at the bars, I drink water with the juice of a lemon wedge squeezed and stirred in it. A teaspoon or so of honey makes that drink perfect for me. But bars don't usually have honey. If I can find honey at a supermarket in packets, I'll start bringing my own.

  Bye now.

  Dear Craftyladyinor,

  I've tried several times to leave you a message on your "Before Christmas" blog, but "something is rotten in the State of Shine"--I know not what, but there it is, I could not find the "leave your ocmment box" no matter how many times I sought it.

  So here I am.

  Merry Christmas to you--a multi-talented lady, with a heart as big as the sky. Thank you for all your many messages of wit, humor, and inspiration. Thank you for all your personal messages, so deep with love and concern, and showing that you are a full-fledged human being.

  How many times I have felt like a condemned man; and then one of your Instant Messages popped up, and then we were chatting, and soon the executioner's face was well hidden.

  How many times have I felt like a ghost about to vanish away, when one of your IMs was suddenly there; and before I knew it, you had made me feel whole and human and alive again. If gratitude were gold, then you would dwarf Fort Knox with all the gratitude I give to you.

  Merry Christmas, LadyInor.

  Love,

  --M.L.P.
