thanksgiving

Just wondering what all of our US members are doing for the Day of Turkey Massacre .

Me, I'll be cooking dinner for my family. My mom can't cook worth ****, so I'm taking over. Bwahaha!

The downside, I'll be without actual internet until possibly Thursday night when I go back home. I'll still try to run over to mcdonalds to get some Mario Kart DS wifi action though.

I'm also taking DDR to introduce my neice to. Heheh.

Heh heh, good thing DDR came out when it did, seeing as it's Thanksgiving + all those trips to Micky D's, if you get my meaning Gotta burn some calories.


I think we're just going to order a Turkey because our oven is fu*ked up and the last time we tried to cook one, it took like 36 hours and didn't cook evenly at all. Rediculious. Gonna have to make a bomb raid on Marie Calenders for supplies

I'll be having Thanksgiving at my grandmother's like we do every year. Of course, I'll be leaving that shindig early to come back home and be a bum.

Wake up, watch the parade, help Mother make the cheese-sauce (for the broccoli), eat a big early dinner, take a nap, watch movies all night.

Thanksgiving dinner has fallen entirely upon my shoulders this year. I've been watching cooking shows left and right, so I'm making way too many things from scratch.

It's a small crowd this year, but my father is driving out here from Alabama just for dinner (and partially, to drop his dog off for a week while the lucky bastard goes on a cruise to the Bahamas.) And it'll be the first time I've entertained in my new house, so I want to make it an awesome meal.

EDIT: Damn, when did I become this domestic! I f*ckin swear, married life will do that to ya.

Not only married life... I'm unemployed and today I caught myself wondering if I should do the hoovering before I empty the dishwasher or the other way round.

... I'm pathetic.

Hey, I'm the same way. Ever since I graduated high-school and accepted that I don't have the money for college I've turned into a young male version of Heloise!

About all I've done for the past couple of days is sew and cook. Barefoot. In the kitchen. And I made pie. Oh God.

And now, a Pentagon debriefing on my turkey's status. TURKCON: THAWED. Prepare for elevated status to TURKCON: BRINING.

Hah, I have yet to get to my sewing, first I have to wipe the dust off the shelves and then I have to replace some lightbulbs. And thank God that I haven't had the idea to cook (yet).

... my life's really become... different.

My thanksgiving wasn't all that bad.

I woke up around 9-ish, had a bowl of cereal then watched the parade with my sister. After that I took a shower then watched fottball whiling helping my dad with the dinner(I did the desserts-pecan pie and apple crisp). At about 5-ish my other sister, my brother-in-law, and my nephew came over. I played with my nephew until dinner(he's 18 months-so cute! ^_^), at dinner, then played with my nephew some more. After they left I fell asleep on the couch watching re-runs of Runs House and Real World on MTV. Great day.


I hope everybody else had a great thanksgiving.

My day consisted of waking up at an insanely, stupidly early hour for no reason what so ever. No alarms, no one else awake, no bathroom, nothing. *grumbles*

Watched the parade, then sat on my butt to watch nine straight hours of Avatar. Dinner was sometime during the end of that. *waves vaguely*
