This year we were spared the stress and pain of preparing Turkey Day for the family. This year my brother, Ricky, and his wife, Donna, hosted the event. We made the flight up to Lawrenceville, a little north of Atlanta, to partake in this year's gluttony celebration. We were joined by my parents; my sister, Cher and her husband Kevin and son Kai; Donna's mother, Susan, and brother, Danny; and aunt Connie. My older sister, Rachel, will be joining us tomorrow night.
The food was tasty (and filling). Donna slaved away and prepared a fantastic meal of Roasted Turkey, Honey Ham, green bean casserole, homemade dressing, sweet potato casserole, vegetable medley, cranberry, red cabbage, an apple chutney, and several desserts. My gut was BUSTED.
Tryptophan kicked in and I was soon passed out for the next two hours. Most of the day was spent being a complete bum. It was nice to be on the other side and not have to prepare and cook.
Tomorrow the girls want to brave the cold weather and try their luck at Black Friday's Post-Thanksgiving's shopping. Oh geez.
Hope everyone had a good time. Time to turn in (again) and power up for tomorrow's excursions...
