Thanksgiving in a nutshell. Andrew (my brother) came home and as you can see from the picture, was in charge of dishing out and labeling the leftovers. Mike and Betsy’s Turkey. Mike’s Snack (dressing) and Betsy’s Crud (green bean casserole - which tasted nothing like crud and was quite damn delicious!!!). There were no potatoes to be dished out; we had a minor explosion in the oven that took those out (Pyrex can explode! Be ye warned!!) but I can honestly tell you that no one missed those potatoes. Despite the fact that Thanksgiving is one my least favorite holidays (all that stress over a single meal), this turned out to be a wonderful, wonderful weekend. We played some games after dinner and shared some laughs. We learned the Mike and I shouldn’t be on the same team because we absolutely dominate and that very few of us are any good at humming any actual tunes. Oh, and my dad does a slightly freightening impression of Hulk Hogan. Mike and I went cosmic bowling with my brother and his friends Friday night and I spent yesterday afternoon at the Festival of Trees with my grandmother and mother.
All in all, it started out an excellent kick off to my favorite season of all. I am so excited to see what this season brings!
