Along with millions of other Americans - I spent the Holiday weekend eating way to much food. Turkey, ham, two different kinds of potatos (mashed and cheesy), O salad, Spinach and Artichoke Dip, Stuffing, Sweet Potatos, Dirt and Worms, pumpkin pie, cookies, etc. Along with trying out tons of wines (my favorite was pumpkin wine) and beers. Traditionally in my family we all pile into my Aunts huge house (we are a 20+ family, we can fit no where else) around noon. We snack on appetizers, which I have concluded is not smart when you are planning on eating a huge meal, cause then you end up eating way more then you should. Around 1pm the food is set out, it spreads between the kitchen and the serving table (we always have enough food to feed 3 familys our size). After you pile your plate full of food we all make our way to our spots, Kids at the kids table, Adults at theres. It’s been that way since we were babies and even though us kids are as old as 30 and as young as 20 we still have a kids table. We stuff our faces with the yummies of Thanksgiving. After we eat, the kids head downstairs to pick our spots on the couch and the floor, to begin our tradition of watching movies. This year we watched 3 (yes we are bums) we watched Wall-e, Sex and the City, and What Happens in Vegas. All great movies, and more often or not some of us end of falling asleep during one or two of the movies. It’s usually the ones on the floor, it just sucks you in. If you start to lay down on the floor to watch a movie, we all know you are done for. That darn turkey sure knows how to make a person sleepy. Before we know it 3 movies go by and it is almost 8pm at night, where did the day go! This is how most of our holidays pan out, we plan before hand what movies to bring and pick them out as the day progresses on. There is nothing better then eating way to much food, spending time with your family and curl up on the couch watching great movies.
