My friend John and I celebrated our third Thanksgiving together. His friend Gregory joined us (or, rather, I joined them, as they have been celebrating the holiday this way for years). We ate at McCormick and Schmick's and here's what we had.
Once again I was impressed by how easy and comfortable our new tradition is. I'm thankful for no guilt, no stress, no clean up. I highly recommend it.
I talked my then mother in law to ditch tradition for a nice restaurant many years ago. My father in law bitched the entire time, but since her and I were always on the clean up duty, we winked at each other ever time he opened his mouth. My sister on the other hand is a traditionalist and she will always host the entire family for both Christmas and Thanksgiving. I'm with you on the new tradition!! Have a nice weekend. Mair.
ReplyDeleteWe ordered out from a local restaurant (because we knew the place would be mobbed) and had a very, very no-fuss, no-muss meal. It is a great tradition and a very good meal.
ReplyDeleteI'm Team Aniston, too! Hard to be behind someone who was so unapologetic for sleeping with another person's husband. Tramp!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so lovely. I don't mind the cooking - hate the cleanup. I doubt I'd be able to convince the rest of the family, though.
