Thanksgiving giving!

Last night at Raven's was fun. Star hosted a fabulous Friends and Fiends Thanksgiving dinner and wow was it ever full of good food. Even though Hubby had made a good Roast Buffalo dinner at home I ended up having a little of the stuffing and mashed potatoes and incredibly yummy caramelized carrots. Then of course there was the 5 different kinds of dessert that she brought. Sigh. Happy full tummy right now. If only I could get rid of this wicked headache I would be content.

I had tried not eat too much of the dinner and ended up being a serving wench for most of it. Which if people know me well enough I actually enjoy doing. It makes me happy when I can help other people have a good meal. Somedays I wonder if I should have gone into waitressing. Other days I know that I would not be able to handle all the long hours on my feet for that long. lol. Anyways I apparently was so good that they threatened me with a Cori Zap. It is an in joke from a game called Cosmic Encounters. We were able to make up our own cards and one was called the Cori Zap because our friend was always cleaning or helping with supper when everyone else would be playing. So with the Zap card she had to sit down and join in the game and relax and play. Didn't always work on her mind you. Hahaha.

Still a good time was had by all and I almost won the Hearts game afterward. That was fun I haven't played Hearts in person for ages. Oh and my conversion to facebook is complete merely because I check my Scrabulous games at least three times a day if not more sometimes. The rest of facebook is interesting but I am holding back on some things. I only wish I had a photo to put up. Right now I am limiting my friends because quite frankly there are some people I would rather not talk to. I like these people but I don't need them to see into my daily life and I would rather talk to them in person every so often.

So yeah tomorrow we are hosting my parents for supper and they seem to be the only ones available to come so far. Which for me is all right. I wanted a small family dinner anyways and hopefully this way we won't have a ton of leftovers. This may be just wishful thinking on my part. Hubby likes to make extras. Which means more dishes for me afterwards. Lol.

So Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (At least in Canada anyways!)
