The Thanksgiving Four Day Weekend is coming to an end - sad sad sad. I had such a good four days.
Thanksgiving Day was a little rushed in the morning - the desserts I had made the night before didn't really turn out how I wanted them too so I got up and tried again. I had the ingredients for my Pumpkin Marble Bundt Cake and my Apple Tarts. The cake actually turned out really well - the apple tarts, not so much. I think I may have put too much butter in the crumble topping because they just kind of melted all over the place. I left the house a bit later than I had planned on with all of the attempts at baking - got on the road to get L about 1230. Had a really nice drive up to La Connor - L was chatty, the freeway wasn't snowy, there was no traffic. Got to Mom and Dads at a decent time - walked in and the house smelled like turkey . . . yummmmmm! Dinner was really good - all the favorites - turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberries . . . . . . so so good!! What are your favorite Thanksgiving foods?
Friday and Saturday were pretty much "slug" days - I did absolutely nothing! Didn't go Black Friday shopping - just hung around the house catching up on some much needed sleep. Today I started cleaning out my closet - lots of boxes and bags of paper that just need to be shredded and tossed. I also did some Christmas Shopping online - ran some loads of laundry - cleaned the kitchen. Now I am trying to get back into work mode - Month End starts again tomorrow. I need to get lots done on Monday and Tuesday because I have a Relief Society Xmas Dinner Wednesday at 630 that I really want to go to.
Miss Chrissy wasn't feeling very good today - silly pup got into my cereal milk yesterday - - let's just say that dairy is not her friend. She is sleeping right next to me on the couch right now while I write. She looks so comfy - I think it means that it's time to head in to bed.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Have a great week.

Definitely love the turkey and potatoes and gravy. I tried cranberries again, and still don't like them - Yuck! You can tell Tryna I was a good boy and at least tried it again though! Glad you had a good Holiday.
