I wasn't going to cook this year because almost everyone I know is out of town visiting their family. I thought about going out for Thanksgiving dinner. Aside from it being somewhat depressing, I decided I couldn't live without the leftovers. The whole experience was much less emotionally fulfilling than I had hoped. It turns out without family and friends around to experience the holiday with it's just another Thursday. Except you don't have to go to work.
I'm glad I have the leftovers. But next year I think I'll make the effort to be with my family. Not that I didn't want to this year. It just didn't work out like I had hoped. It looked pretty though.

And of course the obligatory turkey coma.
