*DING* Fries are Done. . . .

So I had a friend ask me what I was going to do for Thanksgiving. I told him I was going to eat carbs and sleep. He laughed and said, "No, seriously?" I replied with a bit of a chuckle, but went on to tell him how I was planning on doing just that. And boy did I!

Let's start with breakfast:

6 mini pumpkin chocolate chip cookies

1 Diet Coke

1 Dr. Pepper -We ran out of Diet Coke, so it held me over till the others got cold.

Lunch:

1 Diet Coke

Before Dinner:

My home-made cheeseball with Ritz crackers. (Amount, unknown)

My veggies and home-made dip. (Again, amount, unknown)

1 Diet Coke

Oh, and one nibble of dark turkey meat.

Dinner:

2 pieces of dark turkey meat because the white is the dry meat and who wants to eat that??

1 large scoop of mashed potatoes

1 large scoop of stuffing from the bird, not the other less tasty stuff

All smothered in an unknown amount of gravy

1 of my mom's Parker House rolls

Some of my dad's sweet potatoes

1 large scoop of my sister's fruit salad

1 serving of my aunt's Jell-O thingy

And a nice scoop of buttery corn

2nds:

A little bit of turkey, potatoes, stuffing, and gravy

1 more roll with butter this time

1 Diet Coke (Which got dumped before I finished it!)

Dessert:

1 Thin slice of pumpkin cheesecake

1 Thin slice of Caramel Pecan Supreme from Village Inn

1 Hazelnut cyenne pepper brownie

1 Diet Coke

The Aftermath:

I'm not going to lie, even after all that, I still ate a few olives as I was cleaning up.

Once the kids were in pj's and in front of a movie with my mom, I went off to play Rock Band with a friend. By that time I was closed for business, not even a drink. Until I got home at 11 pm and decided to watch the rest of the movie I started earlier with one last Diet Coke and one more piece of pumpkin cheesecake. By midnight, I was one satisfied camper.

I sure hope all of you got to spend the holiday the way you wanted to and reflected on the things you were thankful for.
