and I am awake. Boiling what must be around 100 pounds of potatoes that will soon be butter soaked mashed potatoes tomorrow.

Ugh, I am tired.  I have been up since before 5 this morning cooking, went to work and came home to cook some more.  Its not even here yet and I am sick of food!  Not!!  :-p

But I wanted to hop on and say HAPPY GOBBLE GOBBLE buddies!  I hope everyone has a good day.  Whether you splurge or not, please dont forget what the day is truly all about.  Food should be something we are thankful for because so many this year are without.  So dont forget that when you are fixing your plate.  And while you may not like the family member sitting across from you, please remember you are lucky that you do still have a family that you can spend the day with.  So many are alone right now.  And so lonely.  And when you think of all the wrong things in your life, maybe you’ve gained weight ( I have.  1.8 pounds.  So what?  I can lose it), maybe you didnt make your goal, maybe you are right back at square one, remember you are still here and blessed with another day, another chance.

Just dont take the day for granted.  Take the day off and enjoy and love the ones around you.  There is always Friday.
