For the first time since I was born, no family thing for Thanksgiving. My younger brother and his family always visit her family in Michigan. In the past few years, we all went to my older brother's house. Just found out older brother's family is going to her family way south of here. (As brother said "Listen, woman. This is the way it is. We are going to do what YOU want whether you like it or not." He was joking.
I'm actually kind of looking forward to cooking at home, just a little. The ex b/f (aka Homeless Guy Who Is Staying With Me After His House Burnt Down) was going to do that, now it will be 2 of us. May get some movies from the library and just have a day of it. Then again, if we can scrape up some cash and something decent is playing, maybe we'll go to the movies. |

I am cooking a boneless skinless turkey breast and a couple of fixins for me and my boyfriend. Then, some friends are coming over later in the night and I am planning on making my pumpkin pie and mummy's famous apple pie. With wine of course.

Going to my mother-in-law's in North Carolina for a couple days. It's so boring there. Oh, well.
I'd rather stay home with my wife and kids and have a non-traditional feast. Did a huge salmon fillet baked in filo dough once. It was awesome. Leg of lamb another year. Yum. Turkey is alright, but I don't get excited about it. |

I'm going to Taos to a bed and breakfast. They can cook and clean...I'm not ruining anyone's Thanksgiving this year! Woo- hoo 3 days off work in a row....Yowzers!! I already bought a stack of books and headed for a wood-burning kiva fireplace with hot cocoa (in my mind)!

There is no thanks giving holiday here and I'll not miss it too much.
It is nice to see everyone once or twice a year but most of the time we end up in a big argument over this dumbassed thing or another. The foods are always great, that I'll miss. Hope everyone has a great Tgiving day though. |

We invited a family of 4 over and my brother, niece & her boyfriend will be coming over. So that will be about 12 of us. Should be fun.

we'll see. It takes about 5 hours to get to Santa Fe, which is why I've never made it to Taos. But thanks for the invite!
. . . tho I sorta invited myself!

Going to New Orleans and maybe eat some turkey gumbo. Then take an 8-day trip on the Mrs. Sippee thru the delta and then up the Atchafalaya.
