My family always go to an expensive local place to eat. Its really traditional thanksgiving food and is too expensive for my taste. But since I'm not paying for it, I'm not going to complain. Would much prefer to go eat Chinese although ham+gravy is excellent. I have to say though, the environment sucks. There's only really old people at that place. I'm talking 50+ people since only retirees with money go eat there. Too damn old fashion for me.

Then after food I'm off to work.

Omg, it was embarrassing kind of. Rice is like the main food for Hmongs.
So yeah. When we had our feast at my house, we didn't expect a lot of
people to come so we didn't prepare enough rice. So my mom made me
starve while everyone ate. I was going partying afterwards anyway so I
was over-excited and ended not eating till the next day at work.

Yes my family was being fat this Thanksgiving the sad thing is I was tired to death because I cooked almost everything.. I was running back and forth around the kitchen like a chicken with it's head chopped off.... luckily I had some help from Tim near the end ... We over cooked horribly ... but it was worth it .. LOL because we ate til like 3 am hahah cause we stayed up watching movies also and got hungry every now and then and we wanted to show my sister's boyfriend (He's hispanic) a good thanksgiving with our family ..... explains some of the mexican dishe's.. hahah it was a pretty good week ...... he's like tim's new friend now even though he's 17 and tim is like 22 .. for a kid his age very mature and generous ...

Girl I totally forgot to take pictures as you can tell the menu was long as heck of course I was so tired by the end of cooking :loool: the funny thing is after we all ate and stuff I wanted to cry because I remembered creating this thread and looking at the food on the table I was like NOOOOOOOOO! my foot was all hurting the hubby had to massage my foot.. he was like deng woman your ankle's are swollen as heck what the heck you packing on you lmao. I was like is that a fat joke? lmao. he was like no.. well yes.. all that food u ate .. and i ate of course our ankle' be swole.. I was like ghetto arse lol ... but im was so sad i didn't get to take my pictures TT.TT cause the entire time I was cooking it was the only thing I was thinking about doing "like i cant wait till this all gets done so I could take the pictures.." but when it was done I was thinking "YES FINALLY I AM SO FREAKING HUNGRY!" and Boom there goes the photos :loool: Next time I won't over cook ugh. I was expecting more people but some family members canceled at the last minute because they couldn't make it into town due to inability to buy plane tickets on time darned procrastinator.. and the dumb stuff is they called us that same morning of thanksgiving, "oh i can't make it because I couldn't buy a ticket" I was like what the freak?! lol all that food I planned to cook.. I was like oh well im cook it anyways because i spent money buying it and im gonna put it to use .. (not occuring in my mind that I could have saved some of the ingredients to make dishe's another day lol) sighhhhh!

Sorry just had to vent that out a bit lol
