Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Huzzah, a day of no school, lots of food, movies, games, and me playing with my cat. I was actually able to keep down some food, so I'm happy about that, and now that there is leftovers, I can make sure that I get my fill of food. I can't eat as much as I used to, but at least things are staying down.

This year we decided to only do half a turkey--just the turkey breast--and that was great for the 5 of us. It cooked faster and wasn't dry--which is one reason I usually don't like too much turkey. Mashed and sweet potatoes of course along with veggies, stuffing, rice, fruit, bubbly, guarana, pie, and pomegranate juice. Yummy. I love potatoes, so I was happy. This was also the first time that we made mashed potatoes without our stand mixer. We did it the old manual way, but the potatoes were really well cooked, so they mashed easily, plus we have a 'secret' way of making them. . . . . . . . .

Now, it's time for a nap.
