Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

What are you thankful for? Such a common question during thanksgivings, but how silly that we leave just one day a year to say what we're thankful for. Shouldn't be thankful everyday? But, in lieu of the holiday, here's what I'm thankful for this year.

I'm extremely thankful for all the people that are in my life, the people who have come and never left, the ones that have come and have left. Regardless of how long I have known people, they have all left memorable moments in my life. And I couldn't be more grateful for those moments.

Thanksgiving in my house, is normally very very hectic. We host, and everyone comes here. Which of course also means, that we cook...everything.  Normally, we have the whole house fulled. And dad gets really excited about cooking his deep fried turkey. I mean, who wouldn't get excited about sticking a huge turkey into a boiling vat of oil. Not dangerous in the least bit, right? No, you have to deep fry the turkey outside, why? Cause it's a freaking fire hazard, that's why! Luckily, this year we have a deep fryer that we can use indoors. Dad has never been happier about it. However, we're not doing a turkey this year. We are making chicken, four huge ass chickens. I have NO idea why we need four chickens, there's only 6-8 of us.
Our menu is the following:
Lasagna,
4 Chickens
Cranberry Sauce
Ham
Baked Potatoes
Mashed Potatoes
Meatballs
Cookies

I know that doesn't seem like a lot, but there is so much food. And I don't even know what everyone else is bringing! The holidays always excite my belly, but my waistline not as much. Weight Watchers is gonna hate me this weekend, so I'm cheating and not gonna weigh-in. Shh, don't tell my app that.

Happy Thanksgiving!
