I am now one of the 3 million plus people thats gonna
travel this holiday season.. We meaning "the family" are leaving
East Tenn. early wed, morning to goto south fl. for a hot meal
and spend time w/ the family ...OH JOY.. I'd rather have a
colonoscopy with a sony handy cam and no lube.... Don't
get me wrong I'm love the holidays but hate the BS involved.
Anyone else feel this way ?

 

Where in South Florida?

 

Port St. lowsey (lucie)

 

Sometimes I get like that. Last Christmas was a potential disaster. What we do is one year we will have x-mas dinner with my family and then the next year, we go to my in-laws. Anyways the year before last, we were at the in-laws and then last x-mas my brother-in-law and his wife were visiting from Alabama, so naturally the in-laws wanted us to come up again. I didn't want to go, I wanted to spend it with my family (my grandmother is 86 so potentially, I don't have very many x-mas dinners left with her).

Anyways, to avoid conflict, I told everyone to come to my place. I cooked x-mas dinner for 15 people - THAT WAS FUN, not!

 

Painful !!!!! They need to come up w/ a pill that just
knox ya out till January 1st........

 

Just eat as much turkey as you can possibly stuff into ya - it makes you sleepy then you can go take a nap!!!! That's what I do, sometimes.

 

It's funny how that works.. Stuff yur face then fall asleep....

Lots of liquor works good to......

 

Exactly!!! See holidays, don't have to be that painful!!! Well maybe the morning after, but that is a whole other topic!

 

Ya dont have to worry about them morning after till after new years if you just keep drinking the whole way through the holidays!!!

 

ah, just keep drinking then ya don't have to worry bout the morn after . I have everyone come to my house and I don't do the norm turkey thing. This year I am making Chicken Marsala, garlic mashed, broccoli with lemon sauce and french onion soup. Also make a white and dark choc. bread pudding that is out of this world!! I have about14 people who come to my house every year. Whatever you guys are doing, Be safe and have fun
