I took the folks to my brother's house yesterday for Thanksgiving and after the debacle which will only be discussed within the extended family, I had did a ham and macaroni and cheese for them tonight and gave them half a sweet potato. My niece and nephew don't like any Thanksgiving food but for rolls. It was so sad.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...e933d0596c.jpg EDIT: I'll spill the tea. My niece and nephew (14 and 9) apparently don't like any Thanksgiving food. because: 1- The kids dislike most Thanksgiving food. 2- The Mac and Cheese was from Wawa. 3- The turkey was just an air fried bone in breast. 4- No cornbread stuffing. 5- The only true vegetable was carrots (I count potatoes as a starch. The potatoes were boiled and pressed but not mashed as the kids don't like potatoes). 6- Before/after the meal, there was little conversation with Mom. The nephew was in iPad, niece took a nap(a), my brother was more into watching football and my SIL was moaning in pain from her July knee surgery when not in their bedroom. At least we brought four desserts, which they quickly broke into after the meal. UGH. |

More meat! Have you eaten any vegetables at all? Like chicken, which is considered a vegetable there?

Lol...they don't need no stinking veggies. They did put onion on my pizza...does that count? I think fiber is against their religion. It is all cheese and meat. And more meat. And a side of cheese. Some fruit occassionaly shows up.
