Thanksgiving!

Tomorrow is the big day where we all like to show off our cooking skills. Unfortunately, I won't be in the kitchen tomorrow. I still live with my parents so they get to some in the spotlight.  Dad prepares and fries the Turkey,  Mom mixes and bakes. I might help chop or measure but mostly I'll be in the way. Plus,  by around noon, the kitchen is so hot that one can hardly stand it. 
On the menu we have fried turkey, Mashed potatoes, sweet potato souflée, green bean casserole, stuffing, spinach dip, a veggie tray, cheese and crackers.  Let us not forget the most important part, cranberry sauce! I love that stuff. It's great; the cold, tart, and juicy stuff goes great with turkey (especially the driest pieces).
I think the best part about Thanksgiving is that we get to spend the time with family. With times like they are, is nice to just sit down and remade with the people you really care for. Then, starting at about 6pm Thursday we all freeze our asses off trying to get the best Black Friday deals. It's a lovely tradition.
This Thanksgiving is pretty cool too; my birthday is on Monday (12/2).  Usually, Thanksgiving is to early and my birthday is almost a week or two later. This year I get to see everyone right before my birthday, which is pretty awesome.
Until next time, have a safe and happy holiday!
