Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everybody is having a happy Thanksgiving. I wish we were having Thanksgiving. I have been married eight years, and it is still weird when I miss a holiday with my family. My family has rock solid traditions. Thanksgiving dinner is always on Thanksgiving, at Grandma’s house, at noon, not 11:30, not 12:30, but noon. Now it’s been moved to my Aunts house since my Grandma is getting up there in age and has downsized to an apartment.

The Wife’s family celebrates holidays on different days sometimes to work with people’s schedules, so I won’t get my Thanksgiving dinner until Saturday. They also don’t have lutefisk, or lefse, because nobody likes them. I don’t know how they can be Norwegians and not like them. I guess I will have to do without this year.

It was a beautiful day out today. It got up into the 40s, so I took advantage of it and got our Christmas lights up.

Now I gotta find something to eat and watch some football for the rest of the day.

    Lutefisk is fish boiled in lye. My husband's grandparents were Finnish, and they made it in their home (now my home). Apparently it smelled awful. I've never had it.

    We do have a sauna. It is also Finnish.

    Happy Thanksgiving.
