Happy Thanksgiving! I know it's a bit early, but we will be traveling and although I'm taking my computer ~ more on that in a bit ~ I doubt I will have any blogging time.
Why I love Thanksgiving:
~The food is great. Even if it is purchased in advance and warmed up in the oven, you're still sitting at a full table with friends/family/pets. Ok, maybe not the pets, but they're hanging nearby, I betcha.
~No shopping for gifts. No wrapping, no worrying (omg, will he/she like it?), no emptying the bank account for a holiday (although I don't do that, I try to shop somewhat early, or buy modest gifts). No meltdowns from kids that didn't get quite what they wanted, although they might have a tummy ache.
~No trees or tons of decor you have to skirt around. Maybe a cornucopia that is thrown out the next day anyway.
~I consider this a stress free holiday, for all the above reasons. Eating and football and Yahtzee or scrabble.
~Dessert. Pie, that comes in pecan and pumpkin and apple.....
I hope that all of you enjoy!
Although I'm taking my computer, it's an attempt to make some real headway on my essay due on 11/30, which I haven't even started. :-(
Love y'all ~ 365
My wife and I have to work Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday but we get the Holiday and the day after. We plan to cook for some of our family. I love Thanksgiving. Hope yours is a good one.
ReplyDeleteAlso, you should put a Follow Widget on your blog that notifies when you post.
Personally I think all cooks should at least get off by noon on Wednesday to get a head start, lol. Thanks for pestering me about the follow widget, I finally figured out where it is! I expect to see you there :-)
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you as well. Enjoy, have a 2nd or 3rd piece of pie for me. Safe Travels!
