My pregnant wife has bad sciatica showkiller, much worse than her first pregnancy. Congrats.
I go to the in laws for thanksgiving. We’re a tiny immigrant family so thanksgiving used to suck as the food was terrible and my mom had no damn clue how to cook a decent turkey, and we’d usually have a lamb dish except the lamb was from some ****** West Virginia food land and would be awful. But ever since I married my blonde American wife....MY GAWD.
Big family, lots of old aunts, probably about 25 people congregate at my FIL’s house. First year I had no idea what the hell I was doing, stuffed myself on deviled eggs and candied bacon before the parade of amazing side dishes like mac n cheese and mashed paotatoes and all the casseroles etc etc. didn’t even make it to the entrees which her uncle makes (filets and turkey). The family cocktail is whiskey sours, just top notch.
Finally learned to pace myself somewhat, actually made it to dessert last year which included some incredible pecan pie with chocolate chips in it. :fire:Gotta say the U S of A knows how to celebrate, used to hate this time of year because it ushered in bad weather but I think it’s my favorite six weeks of the year now all thanks to American traditions. :100points::americanflag:
No clue what dinnerware we use either.
