Fewer and fewer people probably remember the Waltons but I always loved them. From their house to yours (or your favorite restaurant) have a happy day.
Happy Thanksgiving. Of course I remember the Waltons! Jackie watched one of their early (maybe the first) movies last year, I believe. I think I mentioned that we saw Richard Thomas many years ago on the Upper West Side, pushing his kids (then toddlers, now 40!) in a stroller. Jackie could not contain herself and yelled out, "John Boy!" at which he laughed uproariously.
And you, Margot. Thanks for stopping by. I miss your blog. I know it is overly sentimental but it worked for me. Black Friday begins weeks earlier now. I have been spending money for weeks.

My late mother's very favourite television show, The Waltons was a Sunday evening staple in the Busby household.
A very Happy Thanksgiving to you!
I hope you enjoyed Thanksgiving, Patti!
CW network ran a Waltons-revival movie in primetime last night. I think their place in the popular imagination is still secure.
Happy "Black Friday" everyone!
And you, Margot. Thanks for stopping by. I miss your blog.

And you, Brian. We just made our reservations for Stratford. It's not the same without our annual lunch though.
