Turkey, Mashed Potatoes and then some...

Working the Monday after a holiday weekend is so tough, especially if it was ultra busy and you were suffering from a mammoth hangover yesterday. I admit it. I drank to darn much on Saturday night. I remember thinking that I should stop, but something about those tasty alcohol treats just kept calling my name.

You see, my parents came into town and surprised me for Thanksgiving. I must say that I was shocked and although I was very happy to see them I had made all of these plans to work around my house so it kind of ruffled my feathers a bit. Instead of stewing over the visit I just pulled up my big girl panties and became happy and grateful they had come. It turned out to be a great time. On Thursday we went to Thanksgiving at my in-laws, Friday we did “Black Friday” (I know crazy) and then Saturday we had dinner at my house with my parents and my in-laws.

My mother-in-law makes the best lemon drop martinis and after a very intense card game and 6 lemon drops I found myself “tore up from the floor up”. Translation: I was very intoxicated and yesterday I knew it. Headache, Nausea, fatigue and just plain nastiness. I am not a big drinker and haven’t been sick like that in 5 years. I must stay away from the lemon drops they get me in trouble, but mmmm!!! They are sooo good.

  1. I'm so glad your parents came to see you! I'm also glad you didn't get trampled to death in the Black Friday madness. Can you believe those stories! People are idiots.
