Thanksgiving was unique this year and harry...
Our little family dined at Mi Mi's Cafe on thanksgiving. You may sadly wonder why we didn't enjoy my mother and/or mother-in-law's delicious masterful cooking on such a special holiday??? My parents were in California over thanksgiving and my in-laws spent the holiday in Idaho. So Jason and I spent our first thanksgiving without extended family--even when Jason and I lived in Oklahoma, we always had extended family visitors! I'd debated on cooking our own little family a thanksgiving meal, but we (Jason and I...yeah my husband helps with the cooking, sexy huh?) decided that we just wanted to "relax" and honestly I didn't want to do the dishes that follow such a feast. Plus, my tiny children don't appreciate a turkey dinner -- now if I served popcorn and candy on a platter then they would totally dig thanksgiving! So Aunt Mi Mi prepared our thanksgiving dinner - I didn't realize she had such curly hair until I found a strand of it on my fork...yum. That Mi Mi's such a prankster! She knows just how to make me want to vomit :) The meal actually wasn't too bad, but certainly not like homemade. We followed dinner up with a movie. We took the kids to see Madagascar 2, they had a great time --they ate lots of popcorn and candy.
Sorry Aunt Mi Mi, no hard feelings, but we won't be back for thanksgiving next year. As a word of advice I'd take your "hair salad" off of the menu.

WOW..sounds delicious. I always LOVE when I find secret ingredients like hair in my food too. All joking aside...that is really disgusting. I hope you had a FREE meal. I totally don't blame you for not wanting to cook for your little kiddos (I feel like that most every night..he he he). Well, maybe next year we can all have a scrumptious meal together. And maybe you could make one of your delicious pies that you make every year. You do make a mean pie crust, I have always been impressed.
PS- at least you will definitely never forget that thanksgiving.;)
Heidi, you make me laugh! That will be a story that you will remember forever & your kids will love hearing it. We missed you at my moms but totally understand! Love you guys!
