I’m quite pleased with myself. Matter of fact, I’m feeling full of myself. I did a damn fine job on my cooking duties for Thanksgiving. Sadly, my lack of time has forced this post to be delayed.

So back to my awesomeness….

I made my first EVAR sweet potatoe pie, complete with meringue. Oh yes, I was the complete awesome from head to toe! I whipped this up all while I had green bean casserole and corn casserole going at like 9am Thanksgiving morning. I was truly the multitasking princess of the kitchen, lol.

From there the day was easy. We went to Moms (minus Lauren because SURPRISE the Sperm Donor was in town) and Mom and I cooked pretty much everything. She had the turkey going already but we had many other dishes to complete for the meal.

The boys and I played some Uno after dinner and a cool game called “LCR” I picked up for like $5 at WalMart. Mom joined in shortly after while the multiple pies were cooling. We nommed on a chocolat pie (with home made graham cracker crust, thank you Mom), apple pie, pumpkin pie and of course my fabulous sweet potatoe pie (that I didn’t sample).

The night was simple and quiet and yet lots of fun and very relaxing. It was easily one of the best nights I’ve ever had with my Mom.

I would write more but to be completely honest, I don’t feel like it. I have completeled my cousins wedding piece (which I’ll scan later and post) and I am working on a Just Nan piece, an ornament called Toy Soldier. I don’t feel like sitting here while I can be busy with stitching and enjoying some quality quiet time.

I work tomorrow (oh joy) and just want to melt in to my bed and smother myself with the covers. So yeah, bye!
