Gobble Gobble

Thanksgiving is just 2 days away!  I haven't even started thawing my turkey! OMG!

Wait...I know why I don't have a turkey thawing!  It's because I'm not cooking this year!  Woohoo!

Last year was my first year of attempting of making a Thanksgiving dinner.  It was good, but we also ate at 10pm at night.  Since I did a smaller turkey (5 pounds, I think?)  we didn't think it would take a month to cook.  It probably didn't help that Ryan and I kept opening the oven door every 3 seconds to see if the stupid red thing would pop up.

So, Thanksgiving dinner in 2010 was good, but late and a little sad since it was just Ryan, myself and Zoe.

We will be moving in less than 2 weeks and most of our kitchen goodies are now packed up, in boxes, and in a storage unit.  So, how are we going to satisfy our turkey & pumpkin pie cravings this year?

Cracker Barrel.

Yup, for just $6.99 a plate, we can get our filling of all of this and I don't even have to clean one dish.  I'm a little excited about it, but I'm also a little saddened this will be my very first Thanksgiving dinner I've had at a restaurant.  I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but I just hope it doesn't become a tradition :)

I'm still trying to convince Ryan to show up at Cracker Barrel in overalls and a toothpick hanging out of our mouths, but he isn't convinced just yet.  If I do, you better believe there will be pictures coming soon. :)
