Chris and I headed to my family’s place to eat around 12 yesterday.  My family actually eats Thanksgiving lunch and then spend the rest of the day watching football or going to a movie.  My Mother did  a great job once again, like every year!

I ate one plate at my family’s and then we headed to Chris’ Aunt’s. I then had a small serving of salad, corn, turkey, sweet potato and slice of pumpkin cake drizzled w/ caramel and pecans. His Uncle made the cake and it was so delicious, I’ll have to get the recipe!

We watched the Longhorns and Cowboys kick butt!!

I didn’t even realize I forgot to eat cranberry sauce at my Mom’s and I didn’t eat cornbread or rolls….oh well! :)

P.S  Don’t Text and Drive

This occurred on Tuesday, but I didn’t know till yesterday

We arrived at my Family’s house for Thanks Giving, to see no mailbox.  A teenage girl came around the corner too fast and skidded down the street.  My Mother said, all they heard was a big BOOM; then she ran outside too see a CAR FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN. She claimed the life of the ”brick” mailbox and luckily the light post, next to the box stopped the car. The police came and took a report, then she cried and couldn’t remember her parents phone number. Duh! She knew she was in big trouble…her boyfriend came to pick her up but her vehicle took two hours to tow and flip back over. lol

Please don’t Text and Drive

What was your favorite dish?

    Looks like a fantastic Thanksgiving dinner!

    Thanks for the reminder about texting and driving. I see people all the time on the road that are swerving like they are drunk or something, and sure enough, they’re texting!! So dangerous!

    That girl has probably learned that lesson, and fortunately she’s ok!

    That’s scary! Although, I didn’t spend Thanksgiving with my family, that’s how it goes down at our house too. Eat, Watch football, movies, eat again.

    Nice Eats. And what a pretty presentation, I like all the cute serving dishes.

    Fav Dish? So hard to decide. I guess I would have to say the cranberry sauce. I love to eat it with the dressing and turkey.

    Text Driving… No No!

    Maryland has a law and texting and driving is illegal. Who knows if that will stop anyone. Glad you had a nice Thanksgiving. I love mac and cheese and we didn;t have any where I was, darn.

    Your stuffing looks divine. DON’T TEXT AND DRIVE. I see other people doing it all the time on the highway. I honk at them if they start swerving! Have a great weekend!

    Your lunch looks amazing! I hate people who text and drive, I mean it is understandable for people like these to not care for others life, but don’t they care for their own!

    have a great friday!

    My family eats Thanksgiving lunch too … and your lunch looks fabulous! :)

    Ugh, yeah, texting and driving can be bad news … I work for an insurance company and type recorded statements about accidents and cell phones cause a lot of accidents!
