I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I had planned to make most of the meal, host the family... but then my cousin and I thought it would be best to keep is simple. (KISS- keep it simple, stupid) So this year, we're meeting in Chinatown for dinner- it's a good halfway point for the family to meet. No slaving in the kitchen, no burn marks, no wrestling with a hot buttery turkey as I flip it to brown. And while I'll probably make a turkey breast (brined, of course... though I prefer a subtle marinade) with my deluxe mashed potatoes, it's not the turkey meal that counts. It's sharing good food with people I care about and am thankful for, even if it is in smelly ol'Chinatown.
Thanks to all my friends and family, for being there, and for every act of kindness. Here's to the holidays! :)
I woke up with a searing headache today. I hope it doesn't last for the next 4 years...
I know that statistics frequently lie, but I heard CNN say that 40% of the U.S. population believes that the world was created in 7 days.
Fortunately, I just got a enormous bottle of Alleve (my painkiller of choice) at Costco.
I hope you all had a great time this weekend. We had some of the best Halloween weather ever- which was perfect for my costume, as a fairy. I'm so totally beat right now, otherwise I'd be at Cielo listening to Lee Burridge spin. Oh well, maybe next time.
Next (potentially) scary day coming up: November 2. Go out and vote!
