Have a Happy Thanksgiving

Twas the night of thanksgiving,
But I just couldn't sleep
I tried counting backwards,
I tried counting sheep.

The leftovers beckoned -
The dark meat and white
But I fought the temptation
With all of my might.

Tossing and turning with anticipation
The thought of a snack became infatuation.

So, I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
And gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
Gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.

I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
'Til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.

I crashed through the ceiling,
Floating into the sky
With a mouthful of pudding
And a handful of pie.

But, I managed to yell as I soared
Past the trees....
Happy eating to all - pass the
Cranberries, please.

May your stuffing be tasty,
May your turkey be plump.
May your potatoes 'n gravy
Have nary a lump,

May your yams be delicious may your pies
Take the prize,
May your thanksgiving dinner stay
Off of your thighs.

I am making Pies at some point, probably in the middle of the night, Pecan, and a inventive cheesecake recipe. I am thinking Chocolate caramel rocky road. I can't seem to just take a recipe and make it i have to add my own flair. well the pecan is an old family recipe and then there is the flair! which always ends up "really rich".

and tomorrow after my shopping at the big K i shall be making candied carrots
and Stovetop stuffing with celery and onions added. delightful!

This afternoon, Family Pictures ! nightmare! not my fave thing but today is the day he could squeeze us in. until then i get to scramble and clean and run to the stores and get an eyebrow wax. and buy some new powder. Ok get this i wear Lancome dual finish Power, i found it at Costco on Monday in my Shade for $26.99. but it is $34.50 at Macy's but it comes with Gift with Purchase! what do I do? i am torn! i love and am addicted to gift with Purchase! but i am eternally cheap too. you can see the dilemma, gotta get some somewhere. let me know what you think? ! please give me an opinion on it.



and Have a fabulous Thanksgiving!
and black Friday too in case i run out of time and can't blog!

I'm gonna have to agree w/ Lindsay - get your makeup for cheaper this time cuz you'll want that extra money for black friday!!

Oh you gotta go with the gift with purchase! Those are too fun. Clinique is my favorite for those.
I'm not telling how long it's been since I actually made the purchase to get the gift though (my mother in law always gives me hers).

Love the poem. I can totally see Jon doing the midnight raid and floating up to the sky to yell about Happy Thanksgiving to ALL...it makes me giggle and snort just thinking about it!

I will so be thinking about you on Black Friday (my second favorite holiday). My friends and I are leaving at 4 a.m. to go to a less busy Walmart 35 minutes away. Woo hoo!!! Nothing like getting no sleep so Santa can save a ten spot! :)

Have a fantabulous Thanksgiving my crazy RAD friend!

have to agree with everyone else. buy it at costco & use the extra money to buy something you really want/will use. :)

Laurie said...
