@SouthernBee @cowboy sam
lol - i have been with this pain for a while but looking up on how to stretch and get rid of it hopefully - bc i havent done anything proactive about it bc it comes and goes
foodie niece asked if i wanted to come early and hang (slow sous chef) like i did wednesday and since pancake and her dh needed a ride in brother's car -
i will take the subway
i am an 👼
pancake will either uber back or her son will drive her back
i will BE in that car -
foodie is in her element and we all have NOT been together for Thanksgiving for over a decade or two - we all come together on christmas
this will be my first time going to foodie niece for any Thanksgiving...
in the beginning of time
panceake did many thanksgivings - i am 13 years younger
as i became an adult - i hung out with friends and sometimes wouldnt be there
as also my brother - 1.5 years younger than me
then she stopped bc she felt it was NOT appreciated
i was in my early 20s and definitely it was not appreciated
i started thanksgiving (not turkey but another protein)
as my foodie niece and her brother became adults...
foodie niece did it in her small apt and her parents ate there
my parents and brother's family ate at his place
so... it just wasnt a holiday we all came together
foodie niece then moved to larger place and did her yearly huge party with the same menu u saw- by then.... pancake wasn't going and didnt come to mine bc she had to work on Friday (her excuse) she retired and still didn't go to either place
so this is the FIRST time all of us are together - granted, a day after but....
here we are...
