OK, so this year I am not in the holiday spirit…honestly I am just not feeling like cooking. I feel like Christmas has just dropped into my lap and I haven’t even purchased my turkey breast. Lights are up, wreaths, trees and sparkle have already been decked. Hey slow down can I sit and enjoy the Holiday that surrounds its self around food, drink, desserts, family, friends, and lots of laughs.
No I don’t care to hear about what stores will be open at 5 am! Really let’s enjoy food and fun. Let me get my list together, hit the supermarket, attempt to cook an excellent meal for my family. I want to sit back and enjoy my girls and even the dog as we cook, bake and discuss everything under the sun. The last thing on my mind is Black Friday sales that have been bombarding us for at least two weeks.
We have been leaped forged from Thanksgiving to Christmas. This to me has reduced the holiday to an after thought to me it is the kick off to fun and enjoyment of the holiday season. It’s a time to just enjoy family without the pressure of over spending as we hold are breaths that are gift has been a hit. I can just sit back and enjoy family and friends while I think on OK, how I can improve a favorite dish from Thanksgiving for Christmas.
So OK today I will brave the grocery store in attempt to pull a lovely Thanksgiving meal. For my small family and whatever straggling friends who did not make it home for the holidays. Bring on the wine and dessert the best part of the day while I sit back and smile. I will check in tomorrow to let you know how the grocery shopping has went.
