Thanksgiving Recap

The highlights in the form of a list:

  • Dinner with Nate's parents. We ate the moistest turkey I have ever had.
  • Going to my grandparents' house. Lot's of desserts. In fact they set up a separate dessert table.
  • Stopping by to see two of my brothers who were waiting in line outside of Best Buy at 10 pm on Thursday night. The temps dipped into the teens. They slept outside, I slept in my warm cozy bed.
  • Pumpkin pecan pie. That is one pie, not two. 560 calories a slice. Bring it baby.
  • Sleeping in.
  • Leftovers.
Do you see a theme? Sleeping and eating. Eating a sleeping. I love holidays.

"moistest"...that's not an easy word to say. But a very good thing, nonetheless.

You have crazy brothers! Hooray for warm beds!

we spent thanksgiving at Janny's and I thought I was crazy to get up at 4am to go shopping!! Staying out all night? I think that trumps 4am on the crazy chart!! Hope they got what they were after!

Ah, but the list is not of perfect compostion; alas Grandma' pecan pie failed to appear. Methinks I shall prepare one for an humble day of no repute and grace our tables with the delectable dessert.
Me thinks I shall post haste.

Sleeping and eating. Eating and sleeping. It's like getting to be a baby all over again.

Sounds like a lovely holiday, Heth.

Any family that sets up a separate dessert table is ... well, more valuable than Hallmark words could ever say. Wise imperative: do not do anything foolish enough to get yourself banished from this family. If you did, I would have to apply for the slot as granddaughter.
