Mmmm.

Despite refusing to travel for the holidays and thus spending Thanksgiving in a blessedly relative-free zone* I have managed to pig out in approved Thanksgiving fashion. Leftover potato-leek stew, sausage biscuits, vegetable ragout, hard-boiled eggs, a pot roast due to come out of the crockpot in an hour or two, and, just now, two pieces of pumpkin pie, along with gnawing on a bar of dark chocolate ehre and there.

Not all at once, of course. Spread out over the day. I miss turkey not at all, although dressing drowned in giblet gravy sounds like it would be real good right about now.

May have third piece of pumpkin pie. Refuse to feel guilty about food consumed on holidays or when out with friends - made that decision after seeing aunt and cousin whinging on about calories and food one holiday, thus ruining it for everyone within earshot. Time enough for that every other day of the year.

Pronoun use vanihsing again. Feel almost like writing telegram STOP



* I love my family. Just not all at once. Being trapped in a house with a large number of people stresses me out, drives me up the wall, and results in [livejournal.com profile] telophase not, actually, having a good time. Drinking enough wine to maintain a good level of tipsiness dulls the noise, but is still only second-best to visiting a very small number of family at one time.
