and couldn't make it. halfway through cooking, i had to bring her the turkey drippings (is that what they're called? i don't know the first thing about gravy!!!) and watch her make the gravy. it was great at her place, but somehow in the drive home, it became runny and yucky at my house.
i got it all done. it was really good. was supposed to have dinner at around 2 and it was served about 5 (typical me) but i did wear a short skirt (typical me again). and my sister showed up!!! just my sister :) that's alright, i like it better that way anyway.
my son got to beat up on his 'cry-baby' niece (that one's his favorite to pick on anyway. she always cries!!!). his other niece got to pick on him (he loved that one and i think he tried to break her glasses).
i'm glad no other family members showed up! it was too late of a serving time for mister kk's family to come over, and they were having dinner there.
mister kk didn't wake up until 5 minutes before my sister arrived (he did stay up all night bakign cookies, doing dishes, and no doubt checking out what i had been doing on line all week long :) he heard about his 'lack of help' (even though he was very helpful!!!!) for the next few days. (i've been known to complain about a few things in my life, you know, especially when i'm burning my fingers up in the kitchen and he's sound asleep!!)
and yesterday we went to another 'thanksgiving' dinner and stuffed ourselves on pie, cheeseballs and family members. we're done for the year.
sounds like a regular holiday to me?
how'd yours go???
