Everyone keep posting so I have stuff to reply to without spamming. I should be able to get elevated from "saint" this weekend and I want to know if I'm an angel yet or not.

Of course, I'm probably something like an "Arch-Saint" or something else that's ultimately disappointing, but still.

I'm fine thanks! I'm eating with my in-laws, which only makes sense since that is where I live, y'know.

Thanksgiving is usually far too crowded there, since I'm used to small gatherings for turkey day, but it looks like I lucked out and there won't be so many.

They do have a cool tradition, though. Tonight is "Pie Night." As an extra excuse to bring ungodly numbers of people into the house, but disguised as being a method to make sure people can eat Thanksgiving pie when they aren't doing so just because, y'know, it's Thanksgiving and you pretty much NEED to have that slice even though doing so will probably make your stomach so full that it will cause a hernia when you stand, they invite everyone over to eat lots of pie on Wednesday night. (incidentally, anyone who can make it, pie startes in about 5.5 hours)

This tradition is rivaled in coolness only by the tradition I ran into on my mission: Ice cream for breakfast. Everything has ice cream. You may make pancakes or crepes or something, but you put ice cream on them. You make ho-cho, but you put ice cream in it. You may get out an empty bowl, but you put ice cream in it. Topping are extra but show you are truly dedicated to the sanctity of Ice Cream for Breakfast.

It occurs to me that instead of asking random questions here, people should just Ask Dr. SÉ for some more advice.

I remember Ice Cream for breakfast. I havn't eaten waffles with ice Cream fr too long, but there is no better breakfast. I'll convince my mother (the one with the waffle Iron) to make some while I'm down there.

I used to, as a kid, eat a bowl of Ice Cream every breakfast as desert. When I had Waffles and Ice Cream for Breakfast, it just got plain silly.

I once dated a guy whose family had the day after Thanksgiving tradition of pie for breakfast. So they had massive amounts of pie, but it was for the whole weekend, not just the day.

I was used to it being much larger for Thanksgiving and Christmas, when I was growing up, but since I've lived so far away for so long, I usually just do Thanksgiving with friends where I live. It's nice to have the little dinner with friends at Thanksgiving and then go home for the big gathering at Christmas.

I'm a squirrelkeeper. Rhymes with... nothing. But I like squirrels.

Hell's angel possibly. I thought I'd have to go through a number of saintly titles first. Guess EUOL's not as predictable as he once was.
