Yesterday, Thanksgiving Day, was filled with near and distant family, food and fun. As our meal was winding down we were talking around the table, getting ready to clear and wash some dishes before we started the coffee and brought dessert to the table.
Then my brother brought up a game he had played at a gathering with his friends a while ago. It is a word game with movie titles and word replacement. Can you see where this is going? Think of a movie title. Replace one word in the title with the word Panda.
For the rest of the meal we called out many movie titles. Then for the rest of the afternoon and evening they came more slowly, but always getting a chuckle from someone. And wouldn't you know it? The next morning, when I had hoped to be sleeping, my thoughts were still going to the movies and bringing pandas along.
I don't want to take the fun from you, but I will list a few of my favorites to get you started!
Seven Brides for Seven Pandas (Seven Brides for Seven Brothers)
Full Metal Panda (Full Metal Jacket)
Panda on a Wire (Bird on a Wire)
While Pandas Were Sleeping (While You Were Sleeping)
Walk the Panda (Walk the Line)
Can you continue the Panda-monium?

Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
The Artist and the Engineer will join the children's choir is singing Come, Ye Thankful People, Come for our church service tomorrow. They have been preparing for a few weeks.
I'm beginning some small preparations for our feast hosted by my in-laws tomorrow as well. I have the sourdough starter out of the refrigerator to proof (get all bubbly). It is smelling nice and beer-like and looking ready for the next step.
And I have the heavy cream draining into a jar to be made into butter. Mmmmm...so sweet and good with the fresh bread.
The bread is made with a mix of white and whole wheat flour. This way I can add in a little more nutrition and still keep the bread fairly soft. This will be the first time I'm serving my home made sourdough bread outside my immediate family. I hope it goes well!

Raise the song of Harvest home.
All be safely gathered in
Ere the winter storms begin;
God, our Maker, doth provide
For our wants to be supplied.
Come to God;s own temple, come;
Raise the song of Harvest home.

I nearly forgot...23 cups of pumpkin puree. 
That's a lot of soup waiting to be made.
