What is the connotative meaning of this line from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect"? General Barker bustled about the house like a woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty.

General Barker was in a hurry to get everything ready for the experiment.

Explanation:

A woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty has lots of dishes to make and has a challenging work on her hand and lots of work to do. Typically, this woman will be in a hurry to get things done and get everything ready in time.

The same thing applies to General Barker. He was in a hurry and rushing as he wanted to get everything set and ready for the experiment that he had.
