There were times when young Vereint Georges thought his family was weird. Thanksgiving was one of those times.

They bundled up in their winter coats and climbed into the station wagon at ten in the morning and headed to Willsbury, the next town over. Shining Star Grove wasn't big enough for its own movie theater, so they had to make the 45 minute drive in the snow to make the 11:15 matinee showing of Mr. Garbello's Balloon.

Vereint wasn't very enthused about the academy Award nominated movie, but he was happy to be out of the house. Plus they were going to Chang's Chinese Buffet afterward, which was always a treat. His mom didn't believe in wasting money on restaurants and always said things tasted better when they were made at home. Except her version of egg rolls had been really terrible--he'd seen her scrape most of them into the garbage and wished she'd done that before making him eat one.

It was really bothering me.
