I've made it for friends, cause otherwise I'd have no other holiday that matters to me that didn't involve me being a daughter in some form or another, and that can have baggage, even if god baggage. Plus friends!
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

Dinner was sort of a disaster. I am not able to wrangle two kids and make a turkey dinner from scratch while trying to be somewhat charming to guests at the same time. I screwed up the biscuits again and I undercooked the turkey and then I had to make an emergency side dish. Dinner was almost two hours late.
Sigh.
The upside is it was 80 degrees and we ate outside which was beautiful. Grace fell asleep at the table, kind of adorably. It was good.

I must state it didn't feel or taste like a disaster, though I know it was a lot of work.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Tep is awesome, Gracie is adorable (hooray Thanksgiving at home!), I am filled to repletion with delicious food.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat, I fixed your link. It's the least I could do for the completely non-disastrous dinner.

The status is NOT quo.
This is just a quick PSA: I have photographic evidence of megan walker playing Rock Band. Really!
Also, wonderful urban family Thanksgiving as usual. We had 17 adults and 1 adorable child. Yummy food and lots of laughs.

Yay for Grace's first Thanksgiving at home! I'm sure it was delicious.
Our dinner was tasty, but I made far too much. Next year I hope someone stops me before I over produce next time. Luckily ever guest took home a box of leftovers.
So rediculickly tired.
