No turkey leftovers for us. We didn't have turkey this year. :)

What did you have?
I made pasta al forno with a spinach/ricotta/vegetarian Italian sausage filling topped with mozzarella and parmesan. Normally I use real sausage, but my daughter is vegetarian and I didn't feel like making two separate dishes. I put together a mixed greens salad as a side (fun fact - Italians eat their salad after the main course). Mrs. Jaguar made an apple pie for dessert.

You can eat turkey for 8 days straight, if no one ever shows up on account of snow storms.

Turkey soup can be very versatile, with Gochujang and chopped Chinese cabbage it becomes with Pho or Ramen, whichever is easier to say.

Cat gave us a scare last night, stayed out late, probably had a mouse cornered somewhere, she's really playful with the few friends she can find...

She's really excited by the deep snow, imaginary varmints everywhere ;]

Our turkey leftovers, along with pork roast leftovers, will be Brunswick stew.

Right elbow is really in a lot of pain as of late. I cannot play either Guild as I need to save it for work and family. I played some light bass last night while Nicola played the F30r. It was nice. But literally, playing anything like 1x/week for 20 mins. It's quite a shift.

But hey, 42+ years of playing guitar, that is a killer run. Retiring to infrequent bass guitar meanderings :)

Have you had it looked at by a doctor?
I have a similar problem in my left elbow which started when I lifted heavy objects I shouldn't have been lifting, and finished nicely in a hockey game about two months ago.
I've had an x-ray, ultrasound and an MRI, and the diagnosis is that I have sustained a high-grade, partial tear of the flexor tendon. At least it is "high grade" as I wouldn't want to be accused of doing a low-grade or half-assed job of tearing it.
Now awaiting a consult with an Orthopaedic Surgeon about treatment options if any.
Unlike your problem, mine doesn't cause me discomfort or even pain when I play a guitar. Just other people.
But I have been forbidden from playing hockey until this is resolved, which is causing me a great deal of anguish. 61 years of goaltending is not enough of a run for this guy.
But I digress.
Get it checked out, and looked after.
Life is short enough without giving up the things you love without a fight.

I really like butter and olive oil sauteed cremini mushrooms with shallots and fresh sage. Fortunately, nobody else around my Sunday dinner table does so they're all for me.

I have not yet. I am hoping to not have to go down that road. I am not open to surgery.
I think it's a bit like yours, lifting heavy stuff, and with one arm at times, coupled with repetitive use of 40+ years of strumming hard etc. Probably throw in some poor posture, computer mouse work for a couple decades.

But the pain itself, kind of came out of nowhere. About a month ago. Was figuring it would go away but hasn't, so it could very well be a tear.

Thanks RB.
