Where did it go?

What?  Tomorrow is the last day of November?  Who saw that coming?  I feel like turkey month flew by, but man it was fun.  When I think back in my mind this is the whirlwind...

The Opening of the new basketball arena at GT

alot of tennis, working alot, trying to recover by sleeping alot... no pics of that boring stuff...

fried at turkey at the GT vs. Duke game

the beach for Thanksgiving and Ralph playing fetch on the beach

And then there's the food...I don't even know where to start with all the food I prepared and ate this month, here are the highlights

PW's pumpkin pancakes

PW's burgundy mushrooms

Gina Neely's pumpkin cheese cake

Blackened Tilapia Po Boy wraps from Tasty Kitchen

Onion-Bacon Dip from Southern Living

And the best part of the month?  The discovery of this drink!  

Originally from the blog - Cooking in College - this was almost my favorite thing to drink at Thanksgiving!  Second only to the gravy, I mean wine...who drinks gravy....anyway hot or cold this is is freaking fall in a glass - apple, caramel, booze - what more could a girl ask for?

I guess that's about it, now its onto chestnuts, open fires, stockings, reindeer, fat men in red coats...Mariah Carey with her boobs out at Rockefeller Center...oh did you not see that, on live television last night?  Literally a butt in the front -  It was absurd!  For crying out loud Mariah you are singing at a Christmas tree lighting in 30 degree weather, not dancing on the pole in Cabo.  Anyway - all I want for Christmas, is to erase the image of Mariah's boobs from my brain....and maybe get some really cute measuring cups, Anthropology style...

Sincerely Loving Food & Looking forward to Christmas!
