I love Thanksgiving. It is by far my favorite holiday in the whole world! I love it because this is the one holiday that my family gets together. We don't have small children in the family anymore. So there really isn't a need to have the great big Santa Claus surprises like we used to. I guess when you are a little older cooking and eating all day long is a lot more fun!
Usually in the Mackey/Betty households my Nane and I are in the kitchen cooking and preparing all day. Mom will squeeze in after the Turkey is in the oven and help with all the fixens. Then there is the crucial nap time for everyone. Soon after our nap, Alex will begin making the cocktails. By the time we are ready for dinner and wine we are all a little sauced. It really is a great tradition! With football in the background and snacks all day long...I just don't know why this only happens one time a year!
Unfortunately, this year, and every other for that matter, we will be missing one very important ingredient.
