Now that Halloween has passed, I find myself thinking about one of my favorite holidays–Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate all that we are thankful for such as family and friends and…the bounty that will be laid before us! The food. The FOOD! It’s no time to mess around. It’s serious business. I even came up with a top five list.
TOP FIVE REASONS I OWN FAT PANTS
-
That pumpkin/peanut butter/pecan/apple/coconut cream/death by chocolate pie ain’t gonna eat itself.
-
To avoid an embarrassing scene where the button from my jeans pops off and someone loses an eye or a coffee pot.
-
Because I’ve seen my sister do things to a turkey that may have scarred me for life and may actually be illegal in several states but made for the most moist and succulent turkey I’ve ever tasted. Seconds. Thirds. Okay. I am weak.
-
Topping mashed potatoes with copious amounts of gravy. Just enough to make onlookers, if any, think “Wow, it’s like I can actually hear her getting fatter.” as I’m eating them.
-
Because unbuttoning one’s pants at the dinner table is uncouth. I’m a lady!
