The Friday Five

Hope everyone had a super Thanksgiving! In the spirit of the holiday, here are my Five Friday questions. You can join too - just visit My Little Life.

1. What is your favorite part of a Thanksgiving meal?
Is it okay to just say "the food"? I love the flavors of Thanksgiving. We have turkey and ham, mashed potatoes and stuffing, mac and cheese, corn, salad, rolls...okay, I'm getting hungry again!
Okay, my favorite - I'm gonna say the stuffing. I love stuffing, and not to sound like a snob or anything but everyone seems to love my stuffing.

2. Are you a host or a guest for Thanksgiving this year?
Hosting. It's easier since I do the majority of the cooking anyway. This way I don't have to cart the meal to anyone's house.

3. When you think of one Thanksgiving tradition, what comes to mind?
Watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. Even if I don't sit and watch it the whole time, just catching bits and pieces makes it feel like the holidays have begun.

4. You have two pieces of pie in front of you and you HAVE to eat one...do you choose pumpkin or pecan?
Oooh, that's a tough one. I love them both! But I guess I would pick pumpkin just because it has less sugar so I can have a bigger piece!

5. Are you a Black Friday Shopper?
NO WAY!! I HATE shopping the day after Thanksgiving! It's an absolute nightmare! Instead I stay home and begin decorating the home for Christmas. It takes me a full 3 days to get everything done so I try to start as soon as possible.

Have a great day after Thanksgiving everyone!

1) I think my favorite part of this Thanksgiving was meeting new friends. The food was great but the camaraderie and the encouragement was so much more filling!

2) I love that I was a guest. It would have been cool to have been a host also, I guess. I've only hosted Thanksgiving dinner once and it was with E.D.'s family so not all that "festive". :)

3) Being at home with E.D. just relaxing and enjoying his company for the entire day.

4) Normally, I'd choose the pecan pie (nuts! yum!) but honestly, right now I would say no thank you to both of them. My foods fill me up enough that I'm not looking for dessert afterwards anymore.

5) ONLINE SHOPPING! That's the way to go as of today!! They now give the same discounts online as they do in the stores. If you shop through ebates.com, you can get cash back on purchases! It's the only way to shop for me!

Have fun decorating!
