After reading the comments on the last post that detailed all the elaborate Thanksgiving meals catering to traditions that must not be deviated from, vegans and vegetarians, multiple desserts for multiple tastes, as well as continuing to cook all the other food for your families all the rest of the week . . .
I salute you all.
It's a sometimes thankless (ha) job to be the main cook in a household, and that goes double for holidays. It's so much work and planning and time in the kitchen. But there was so much delicious food that came out of our kitchens, and it made people important to us happy.
You did good. I'm proud of you.
And I hope there were lots of leftovers that made it easy to stay out of the kitchen as much as possible for at least a couple of days.
Amen daughter!
ReplyDeleteBack at you.
ReplyDeleteAnd your right. Cooking (and all that goes with it...planning, shopping for, the clean up) is a huge time suck.
Nevermind the holidays. And your right again, being the elf that makes the food and magic happen for others is both a joy and a right royal pain in the rear at times. But it's what we do.
Hohoho.
Ain't it the truth!
