Life passes most people by while they're busy making grand plans for it. – Josh Gallo

Prior to leaving the States I was unsure how I would feel missing those key family holidays. Today is Thanksgiving and since there are several of us homesick for turkey and stuffing as well as friends that have never experienced a true American Thanksgiving and wanted to see how we do it, which I told them wasn’t hard because all you have to do it completely overeat, nap, and wake up and stuff your face again. After the laughter of this explanation we gather teams and split up to gather all of the necessary food items from around town. Substituting chicken for turkey and without Stove Top I threw a fit, turned over a table, and threw feces at wall. Ok, so I didn’t do this, but I sure wanted too. Because if anyone knows me, and Andrea does very well, you might as well cancel Thanksgiving if Stove Top is not on the menu.
**So I will say that I do apologize that these blogs are not nearly as detailed as the previous entries were, but since I am attempting to play catch-up as quickly as possibly from memories that happened almost 10 months ago it is what it is.**
