Happy Thanksgiving...Way Late?

How was your Thanksgiving?  Mine was....delayed.  I worked on Thanksgiving this year, because I work in a restaurant.  It was certainly an experience.  And experiences are great!  But experiences are still not family.  I had the pleasure of spending my delayed Thanksgiving with my family yesterday, full of a bbq Turkey, over-garlicky potatoes and the usual rye and bacon stuffing.  I just finished overdosing on some of those leftover potatoes, and am waiting a few casual minutes till the brownies call my name.  

Holidays are about so many things.  I hope for most that holidays are about reconnecting with family. Holidays remind you of growing up, family gatherings, fights, spilled milk, drunk uncles, good music, and holiday m&m's.  Sorry, but holiday m&m's mean a lot to me.  I just saw a guy in CVS, and by guy I mean 55 year old man, get SO excited about christmas colored peeps.  He said he just really likes the peeps.  And I said, man, I totally understand.  

Holidays are also pretty food-centric.  I went to The Smith on Thursday after work.  Alex had the Thanksgiving dinner.  I had a cheeseburger.  Sad, I know.  But I love the cheeseburger at The Smith and I had thanksgiving food earlier that day at work.  It didn't matter though because it was a holiday and I was eating the food I wanted.  Win win!!!

How was your Thanksgiving?  I am already thinking about Christmas food!

Have a delicious day!
