Happy Thanksgiving...well day after since it's 12:35

Today was great. I got up at noon ...(now that was a feat because I declare someone was trying to get me up earlier) and honestly I don't know what I was doing until about one thirty...but we put out our yardsale signs and then wen't to the expansive Walton's place to get a few more supplies for our dinner. When we got back it was 3:30 and I didn't finish cooking until about six thirty. I think I made great time. Now I have to say that I am very um...NON domestic and don't get me wrong I am perfectly capable of throwing down in the kitchen and keeping a clean home BUT...I do not like housework...it's tedious and boring but a great necessity. My daughter and I cooked together and it was interesting, lol. I made shrimp fettucine, a 3lb turkey breast with cranberry sauce (of course), cornish hens, collard greens, red rice, and a cake. I even made my own icing and of course I put spirulina in the collards and baked flax seed into the cake....we ate so much I thought I was going to pop. My daughter was so drowsy she wanted to go to bed but we were on the run..had to go and see the fam. All my aunts were there complaining about each person's turkey being seasoned poorly or whatnot.. I love my family, they make me laugh like no one else can and you'd think they'd run out of jokes eventually but we don't..ever. I know we all have our issues and our foibles but we love each other and I'm very thankful for them.


So, Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Enjoy the day, and truly give thanks.
