The Foodening

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Maaaan am I stuffed right now. I'm enjoying left overs while I type this AND Im listening to DDR 6th Mix non-stop MEGAMIX so as to encourage me to play DDR some time in the future to burn off all this deliciousness!! But honestly... who would wanna go work out when you can just eat more stuffing??

Vince and I celebrated thanksgiving yesterday because we both had to work today. I spent 9 HOURS COOKING. I used ONE POT for EVERYTHING. It was an intense battle for counter space too cuz our kitchen is TINY.

Any-who, the turkey took 6 hours to cook so while that was in the oven I made green bean casserole, scalloped potatoes, mashed potatoes and stuffing oh yeah and mac n cheese I was going to eat before the turkey but I was like THATS NOT VERY SMART. *BUUUURP*

Vince had to work during the day but he came home in the afternoon and proceeded to ask if the turkey was ready and I said no, so he pouted and went to the living room to play Street Fighter. Then he took a nap and Nimbus took a nap too until the Turkey was ready. I didn't mind them being lazy bums cuz with Vince in his room having unicorn dreams, I had the TV all to myself! So I watched a documentary on The Beatles and Untold Stories of the ER.

Finally, after almost burning the house down, the turkey was ready and the FOODENING BEGAN! All the food was laid out ready for the pickins. Unfortunately this years foodening wasn't very crazy. We each only had one plate and we had tons of leftovers! Then we had berry pie and tart. IT was delicious! So, with bellies full of delicious foods we waddled (and Vince raptored) over to the couch and we watched some shows like Punkin Chunkin, then ended the night with a nice little holiday film called Doubt.

It officially feels like the holidays. This morning there was a layer of ice on my windshield that reminded me of living in Valley Center cuz it was always so cold there during winter. I put up our x-mas lights outside the other day and the whole patio is lit up with a soft white light. It's very soothing and Christmas-y except for the lights don't blink. THe only thing that's left to do is to get that x-mas tree up in here and we're good to go!! Then the mad rush to buy gifts begins... and thankfully, I only have about 20 to buy! Oh and I guess I should get one for Vince too.

PICTURE TIME!!
