Weekend Wrap Up: Friendsgiving

Busiest weekend yet since the ol' ankle has been broken!

Friday, I hobbled my way around to the Grand opening of Dave and Buster's in Dallas (the newest store). That's where I work! Headquarter's is in Dallas. 

It was really fun to go to an opening of something. 

If you are in the Dallas area this store is cool to check out, I promise I am not just saying that since I work for the company. The TVs are the largest I've ever seen in a restaurant!!

Saturday was THE day. THE day of Friendsgiving. We hosted it our house: 30 + people and I am using a walker.

Let me tell you, that shit cray.

Michael (=husband) had a work event that morning, and we thought it appropriate to make not 1 but 2 turkeys and cook 2 desserts and a side.

Plus, I could harldy help, let alone walk.

We cleaned (meaning just Michael cleaned) the house earlier that week. I made one of the casseroles ahead of time.

But then, I took a shower, and the dog ATE the casserole. 

Troublemaker

Idiotically, I put the rest of the casserole down the sink. 

And broke the disposal. THE DAY OF OUR PARTY.

Man down: aka bye bye Disposal

I'm on a roll.

I remade the casserole.

An hour before the party we discovered that we did not have a thermometer for the turkey fryer.

21.6 lb turkey

Michael left to go get one.

He went to FOUR stores and was late for his own party.

Did I mention, He hadn't showered?

As guests were arriving Michael strolled by in a towel.

But, despite all of the above...

Everyone brought delicious food and, of course, tons of boooooze. (That's very important.)

Turkeys turned out awesome! 

Right: Fried Left: baked, Fried wins

A Mass of food was consumed.

My over-the-top blueberry bread pudding.

Drinking games were played.

Friendsgiving was a success!

Some of the girls at the party, ya filthy animal
