Well Im here at the apartment once again this year.  Mostly out of choice of wanting to be cheap.  Which is funny, just looking at what I spent yesterday on food….wow.  But anyway.  I decided not to go on a trip and opting to stay home, rest, and play games.  I could have went on a road trip or the likes, but still after 60 hours on the road on the Vegas trip, Im not ready to go for long drives yet.  I should have probably went up to see Dad of course, but I dont know just didnt.

This year will again be me here at home having a little meal.  Instead of a “box” dinner I piece mealed it together and think it will turn out decent.  Got a couple of cooked turkey breasts from Fresh Market and a ham.  Then Im going to mash some potatos, devil some eggs, and bake some macaroni and cheese.  Oh and got an AWESOME cheese course for starters.  Went and picked up some bree, goat, and lynden for a starter and while I cook.  Almost sad that I am almost looking forward to the cheese more than the food.  Did forget the dressing and the gravy :( but Ill make due I guess.

This will be the second year in a row for me staying home and doing Thanksgiving on my own.  Maybe next year Ill go the full route of brining a turkey and cooking it.
