The Beginning of the Holiday Season

Nov 20, 2006 09:47

Thursday is Thanksgiving, and I just finished my menu. I'm the only one who will prolly eat it, but I'm sure the kids will at least try some of this stuff: Turkey stuffed with homemade corn bread stuffing, REAL mashed potatoes, sweet potato gratin with marshmellow topping, green bean almondine, fresh shucked corn, homemade rolls both butternut squash and regular, mini pumpkin pies from scratch, apple pie or apple dumplings, and ambrosia salad. I have to start making some of that stuff today, I work for the next two and then am off for the holiday, thank god. I really don't want to go to the in-laws, but I've kinda blew them off for the last couple of years. My mom keeps saying to me, "It's only gonna be me and dad. I don't need to get a big turkey or have alot of food." I guess my grandma is going over to my aunt and uncles cause Jimmy is coming up from Tennesse with his kids. Thanks again, Dad, for fucking up the holidays! In other news..........My menu is finished. I'm rather proud of it. It has a Detroit theme/name for each item - sandwhich, salad or soup. I just have to work on a logo now for my sign. I need some different fonts, I know what I want to do I just don't have the fonts or the pictures to do what I want. I might end up at Kinko's and save it to a disk so I can print out menus and such. I'm still eyeing the old Video Madness on Beech, it is the PERFECT size and even though it is an odd shape, I already know what I am going to do in each part. Production area, sale area, and dining area. There is also this little sandwhich shop on Middlebelt I have been eyeing, but that is on the small side. But who knows? I just need the money. I also need a windfall to buy another house, but I won't get into that one. I had to keep Caroline home again today, she woke up throwing up. 5th one this year, and it is only the end of November. I wonder if there is something the matter with her? I'm confused, tired, need a vacation and need money. If you can contribute, let me know.........
