I have been fighting a flu type cold for almost 3 weeks now.... what a delightful holiday. This cold did not keep me from being at Walmart and then Goodys and sitting eating breakfast at the Cracker Barrel by 7:30 am.... that is my idea of shopping. Thats my Thanksgiving tradition, sick I know, but I love it.
 
(you know I am sick, I am smoking menthols.... yuch)
 
Thanksgiving was nice, quiet, because I feel so bad. My daughters helped out, and we had no relatives, so it was easy on me.
 
My favorite thing about Thanksgiving is a chocolate pie that I make only once a year, for fear of eating the whole pie with a big ole glass of milk in one sitting. I will share with anyone who would like a chocolate pie upside down (do we ever do a recipie thread?)
 
The worst was at my mother in laws the year I was married... we never went back.
(the words "stove top stuffing" should say enough)
 
cough, cough, achooo... I am going back to bed

Oh, D! I feel for you! I was sicker than a dog earlier this week coughing up stuff, not smoking until about 4 in the afternoon, barfed up my morning coffee, chills and fever and recovered enough to cook yesterday.

TG, no one else has gotten it. I took the kids to Walmart today to replenish all the stuff we used up for yesterday and get new winter jammies.

I thawed out the rest of the cheesecake I had made for hubby's birthday and baked pumpkin pie. I never want to eat again even though everything was delicious. I feel so fat.

Get well soon!
