Home For The Hoildays

Well I got really lucky. My stage started late and I went home for Thanksgiving. This is my all time favorite holiday. The food, the people, and no rushing for gifts, just great fellowship with the people you love. I am in the airport in New York waiting for my flight and decided to blog. I am sorry it has been awhile but my internet went down then I got to go home. The week before I finished school my mother and my sister came to see me. It was GREAT. I was alittle homesick and it was perfect. We did not do much but the quality visit was so worth it to me. Then I found out I could come home. I saw my girls and celebrated their birthdays. That was worth the expense and travel time. They were very happy to see me. As a parent you wonder if you will ever get to a stage with your children that they will be happy to have you around. I guess I hit the jackpot with mine because they dropped everything and spent the time with me. My Steve was also very happy to have me for a short time. I felt like a very important person. I was so ready for turkey and dressing. In Italy they eat only Italian Food. We tried to get our Chef to let us do turkey and dressing, their idea is different then ours. First he deboned the turkey, Second the dressing was chicken, sausage, bread, dried fruits and seasonings. It tasted like potted meat. The gravy was, I AM NOT SURE. Not any gravy I ever had before. Then when no one ate much they said it was not Italian. It was not American either. The turkey was good, I don't think you can screw up a turkey. So when I was home I had, fish, steak sandwich, french fries, hamburger on the grill, fried chicken, and GOOD OLD ICE TEA. There is something about home cooking, comfort foods at their best. Well my time is up on the computer, people are waiting to use the computers. When I get my internet set up at my stage I will blog again with pictures.
