Happy Thanksgiving Day from a new poster

Options
This is my first post. It is Thanksgiving day, and due to an unfortunate set of unexpected circumstances, my wife and I are headed to Cracker Barrel for Thanksgiving dinner (at 2:30 in the afternoon - I am starved right now) instead of having anything that is even remotely traditional.

    Welcome... and I had a Christmas like that a few years back. Just think of the stories you can share.

    Cracker Barrel serves the "traditional" thanksgiving meal with all the fixings and everything cooked in butter!

    Look at it this way, you have the advantage of looking at their nutritional info and picking the healthy stuff.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I have changed my attitude about food so we no longer celebrate with big dinners or overindulge. The celebration is about the day, NOT the food.
    We just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary last month, and stayed home and ate our grilled chicken breasts and steamed veggies by candlelight because we were celebrating being together, not what we could indulge in (well, food wise anyway, ha ha).

    I think your dinner sounds ideal.
