Recipe for a fabulous holiday weekend:

  • Enough turkey, dressing, and sweet potatoes to require changing into stretchy pants.
  • Leftovers.  Plenty ‘o’ leftovers.
  • Family.  Preferably not the Griswald rocket toilet variety.  But beggars can’t be choosers.
  • Shopping.  Shopping is good.  Doing so in place of sleep?  Eh.  Not so much.
  • Knocking out the Christmas shopping though?  Score.
  • Shiny ornaments, scented candles, and mistletoe.
  • From-scratch hot chocolate.  With gads of whipped cream.
  • Not a lick of exercise.  In spite of the gads of whipped cream.
  • Sleeping in.
  • Scrabble.
  • Jewel singing Winter Wonderland.
  • Brandy-spiked hot apple cider.
  • Squeezing five-wide onto the couch to watch UP!
  • Writing off Black Friday shopping for next year.  And every year thereafter as long as I shall live.  Amen.
  • Substituting cheesy blog posts for those with real content because I’m too busy cooking up a fabulous holiday weekend.

Am I missing anything?

I followed this exact same recipe (minus any attempt at Black Friday) … right down to watching Up. Happy Thanksgiving!

Um… No, you can’t skip out on Black Friday next year. But staying up all night again? Definitely a no-no.

And I’ll take a cheesy blog post from you anytime.

Looks like a perfect recipe to me!
(then again, any time spent listening to Jewel singin’ makes it a pretty good day for me…but esp love her Christmas album!)
