Steph, I loathe the crowds too, but it's sort of a tradition for Mom and I. We go to the mall and get the best deals at the department stores while everyone else is at the big box stores, and we head home as soon as it starts to get really crowded.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I pretty much finished all my cooking. Now my mom's making the turkey. I made a squash and chestnut casserole, and green bean mushroom casserole. Yesterday, I made pumpkin pie. Later on today will be stuffing and mashed potatoes.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I knew it was Thursday. (Always a four-day weekend, right?)
Unless you work for a company that makes their employees work the day after Thanksgiving...

The butternut squash soup is simmering on the stove smelling yummy. Otherwise I am trying to stay out of Mom's way.
