I don't know that I am capable of ever eating again (until 1pm today, when we get to have even MORE delicious Thanksgiving food with the Cook clan!). I woke up this morning in physical pain, but this is the sort of dedication Thanksgiving calls for. I might not be the food eating champion Thanksgiving wants, but I'm the food eating champion Thanksgiving needs.
I forgot to get good pictures of Thanksgiving at my parents' house last night. Something about serious food distractions. I have vague memories of eating stuffing right from a duck and I have recurring flashbacks of mounds of fluffy whipped cream, but it's all bits and pieces right now.
The ride home from Utah County was abominably long, though. Long enough to be of note. We got into I-15 at Lehi and it took AN HOUR to get to Bangerter just across the point of the mountain. This drive usually takes 3-5 minutes. Finally we decided we had to abandon the roads (great practice for zombie invasions anyway) and drove city streets all the way home. All told, it took about an hour and 45 minutes to get back to the apartment.
Andrew is finishing a pumpkin pie for this afternoon. I was going to brave a mall on Black Friday (more for the experience than anything else) but we have decided against this as a foolhardy notion.
