Making Gravy Back in the day when the boys were little I could make gravy Gallons I swear Never dreamed I see a day I couldn't make gravy But there was a dark time that brought me to my knees And I tried to make gravy... It started to thicken I started to panic I just couldn't handle it I couldn't make gravy As I put away the Thanksgiving leftovers that memory came poignantly back to me It gave me an epiphany Today I made the gravy effortlessly How very thankful I am that my gravy came back to me LGR(C)11/25/11 |

Ah, yes indeed, Lori, and I know it was lip-smacking tasty gravy at that, couldn't be anything less. ~*~ He did not wear his scarlet coat, |

It took me years to learn how to make really good gravy, now it is always the star at the Thanksgiving table. Ida |
