WHEN WE WERE CHILDREN, I HAVE 3 BROTHERS,THANKSGIVING WAS A VERY SPECIAL TIME IN MY HOME........MOM SEEMED TO SPEND DAYS COOKING & GETTING READY FOR THE BIG FEAST & THERE WAS AN EXCITMENT IN THE AIR THAT SEEMED TO MARK THE BEGINING OF ALL THE HOLIDAYS COMMING UP.THE AROMA IN THE HOUSE FROM ALL THE COOKING MOM WAS DOING FILLED THE AIR,IT SEEMED LIKE THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR.......AT THE DINNER TABLE WE WAITED FOR MOM TO BRING OUT ALL THE GOODIES SHE SPENT DAYS PREPARING & BY NO MEANS WERE WE DISAPOINTED... MY BROTHERS ALWAYS DECIDED TO HAVE AN EATING CONTEST & MOM WOULD JUST LAUGH AT THEM, BUT I ALWAYS REMEMBERED WHAT SHE SAID WHEN DINNER WAS OVER & WE WERE STUFFED TO THE GILLS.ITS ALMOST LIKE SHE IS STILL WITH US AT THE HOLIDAYS BECAUSE YOU TEND TO OVER EAT...I FIND MYSELF REPEATING WHAT MOM SAID
