For us, it's crammed right before Christmas, giving us only a month in between. And the traditional food for both holidays is pretty much the same, so we have a ton of turkey right there at the end of the year. Talk about being a diet crusher!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-58947581573964880412016-10-11T16:23:03.428-03:002016-10-11T16:23:03.428-03:00From a turkey and time point of view, you should h...From a turkey and time point of view, you should have made the drive. But wouldn't you still want MORE turkey in November? <br /><br />Procrastination is probably the biggest issue for me. But it's easier to blame the cats.

Our Thanksgiving doesn't happen until the end of November as you know, so we have less time to get off the train tracks. And we procrastinate, of course. Three cats doesn't get a lot of sympathy from me as I am down to nine, but I can certainly relate to issues of fur in its various forms. <br />Just think, if I had driven thirty miles north I could have celebrated Thanksgiving early.
