My wife and I split up the Thanksgiving duties. She prepares most of the food (though I make a mean onion soup, for the first course). I do the dishes. Since we have no dishwasher, it’s a formidable job, usually lasting just shy of two hours. So I actually do pull my weight.
Tradition is important this time of year, and my tradition, while washing the dishes, is to listen to Alice’s Restaurant while scouring the dishes. If you haven’t watched or listened yet this Thanksgiving Day, you have about 35 minutes less to do so, and you need go no further than where you are right now, for here’s Arlo, forty years removed from those storied days.
