This Thanksgiving we spent it with the Shelley side. It was very interesting, only because I was the one cooking. The only thing I didn't cook was the pies and corn. I was in charge of taking out a pie though which ended up burnt because I left it in too long. Growing up I always saw my mom cooking and slaving away all day for thanksgiving... I must have missed something because it doesn't take that long. The turkey didn't get done in time because we put it in too late, so we had a turkeyless thanksgiving. I did the mashed potatoes too early, so I was having to microwave them until they were warm again. The stuffing and gravy were good except I didn't cook enough. The rolls didn't get done until we were half way through eating... what else could go wrong.. Well, nothing.. I learned whether it's good or bad, on time or not on time, everyone just eats and enjoys it. And in the end all the food does get eating in the next couple of days anyways. I was so worried and worked up over nothing. :) It was my first time cooking it, and it was fun. We all have to learn someway right???
