Thanksgiving.
Well if I'm not mistaken Thanksgiving is supposed to be a day dedicated to giving thanks and what not right? But over the years it kinda transformed into a day dedicated to over-stuffing yourself with turkey and pumpkin pie. Yeah sure argue with me all u want with the sides u have with the turkey and all the other deserts you eat after; blah, blah, blah! But no matter what you say, the day is really dedicated to eating turkey and pumpkin pie! Why? There is no other day of the year where someone takes the time to roast a damn bird for 5 hours and scarfs down some pumpkin and cool whip afterward. It's almost like stores only put these items on the shelf when its Thanksgiving! lol. Ok, I'm done with my bitch fit, back to the point. It was eating right? Well that is exactly what my family and I did, along with 2 other random people, who claimed to be my grandma's neighbors--A Paul Bunyan look alike and his wife who never stopped talking to take a breath. Ugh. It was a small get-together this year. But other than alla that, it was dope, lots of food! Lets get to the pics!
Oh, and P.S. - The Cowboys romped on the Seahawks 34-9 to keep their playoff hopes alive!
Started the day off right with bbq'd oysters and deviled eggs - the sauce on the right is bomb.
Whats Thanksgiving w/o Mashed Potatoes & Gravy?
The Neck and Gizzards used to make that gravy.

Just a reminder of why Thanksgiving is my Favorite Holiday.
Only 4 Deserts. Pumpkin pie, Apple pie, Mince Meat pie, and Potica (Apple pie not in shot)
