Today was Thanksgiving Day. And yes we did celebrate it here - well we did. We celebrated it in the typical American way, too. I spent the best part of five hours on the road with everyone else. However, here it was with the rush hour traffic when I drove to and from Dad's in London to collect him and take him home.
We gorged out on roast turkey, dressing, broccoli casserole, sweet potato mash, rice covered with a rich giblet gravy, and some cranberry sauce. Once we had given this half an hour to go down, we followed that up with more carbs in the form of an apple pie with vanilla ice cream. All the food, excluding the ice cream, being home made by yours truly.
Then to finish the day we lounged in front of the television watching football. However, in my case, I watched Spurs beat NEC Nijmejan 1-0 in the UEFA Cup. I could have watched NFL had I wanted to. Sky Sports were broadcasting three live games back to back.
Oh yea, we even found some room for a turkey sandwich, too.
