I love Thanksgiving time and my family does, too. My kids get really into it and we always do all kinds of crafts like making the hand turkeys and stringing things along the side of the house and generally just have a great time! We always all end up watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on our http://www.direc4u.com/ channels and then the men of course pass out with football blaring as soon as we eat. I think my favorite part of the day is cooking with my mom and grandmom, though, since we don’t get to spend all that much time together and the time we do have is really precious to me. There’s nothing like baking biscuits and watching the turkey cook all day long and just getting to laugh and catch up on the last few months with family. I’m really blessed because I have such a wonderfully supportive family but you know, at the end of the day I think I’m going to have to say my kids are what makes it.

Pizza Wars

I have always been a fan of pizza. It used to be that having a pizza delivered was a quick, easy and cheap meal, but those days have been long gone. Most places don’t deliver for free, they do include a fee and then of course you need to tip the delivery person and that can really add up.

I’m glad to see that there are some pizza wars going on with the major pizza companies recently. There are good deals to be found out there now and I’m taking advantage of them every time I crave a pizza, which is a couple of times a week!

Starbucks Verses Sheetz

I like a hot mocha now and then. It got started on them years ago and didn’t really like the first couple that I drank. Some one at work kept buying them for me and before you know it I really started to look forward to drinking more. But I have to say that Starbucks can really put a hole in your pocket, but they make the best I’ve ever had.

Sheetz is a gas/convenience store around here and they make a to mocha that is passable and a lot more affordable. Plus each time you purchase one they stamp one of their cards and after purchasing 6 of them you number 7 for free. So Sheetz has my vote, unless someone else is buying then it Starbucks all the way.

Online Gay Travel Buddy

I’m looking forward to going out of town over the weekend with a good friend who knows all the best Gay Bars and Restaurants in the San Francisco, Castro Area to take me to when we visit her good friend who moved to the San Francisco area a few years ago. Going to a Gay Bar by yourself just isn’t the same as going with a great group of friends of various sexual preferences. I can honestly say that I’ve never had a bad time at one of these establishments, although there seems to be drama every which you turn, can’t say that that is unexpected in those environments though. One day I’d love to go to some of the clubs in New York City, bet those are some “wild” nights going on there.

Anyways, I don’t think I’ll be taking my laptop over the weekend. There will be no time for such things, any down time I’m sure will be trying to catch up on some sleep and then there is always the nursing of the inevitable ‘morning after’ hang over that are getting harder and harder to get over as I am getting older. My friend does have Internet access, so there is a chance I’ll check my emails, but I can’t promise I’ll be doing any blogging until I get back home, but who knows what will really happen until it all goes down and I’m down with just about anything while visiting there.

At least it won’t be a real short trip/visit, I’ll get there (if everything goes right) Friday afternoon and won’t have to leave until Monday afternoon, which will give me time to really spend time doing what I want to do with the people that I want to do it with, without the rush, rush that is always so abundant on those really short weekend trips that end up being a tremendous amount of effort and money for a few short days.

Fried Kool-Aid Balls- Deep Fried That Is

Just when you think you have seen everything, something so wacky comes along that really makes you wonder. Deep Fried Kool-Aid Balls is such a case. I loved Kool-Aid as a kid and to be honest I still drink Kool-Aid on occasion. I prefer the Cherry flavor, but the Black Cherry is the best, although much harder to find in any of these area stores that I shop in. Once in a while I’ll stumble on some and grab up and handful to keep at hand.

Anyway, somehow I came across a story about a guy who is making a fortune selling Deep Fried Kool-Aid Balls which of course caught my attention. There are a few videos on these new fangled snacks that are being sold on boardwalks and carnivals and various other places all across the country. I will have to now keep my eyes open for these interesting snacks. There are several recipes to be found online, but since I’m not all that into cooking it will have to wait until I find them some where freshly cooked and ready to eat!
