I’m completely spoiled in that almost everything we eat is scratch-made and top-quality. The only feasting disagreement between myself and She Who Must Be Obeyed is the cranberry sauce: she prefers a home-made actual sauce, but I insist upon the stuff that goes “SHLOOP” out of a can and then sits there as a quivering gelatinous cylinder, waiting to be sliced into transparent ruby discs.

Little girl, you don’t have to eat it, so keep you politics to yourself, or else.

I love the cranberry sauce we make. My cousin’s wife and one of my daughters can also do a pretty good job of it as well.
