Is one of my favorite holidays because our entire family of aunts, uncles, and cousins meets at my grandma jo's and grandpa jake's house for a great feast. however, waiting for our traditional 4: 00 pm meal time is almost impossible. from the moment i arrive, i smell roasting turkey and freshly baked rolls, not to mention aunt louise's famous cinnamon apple crunch pie. luckily, we can snack on vegetable and fruit while we wait. however, nothing compares to the delicious meal. it is worth the wait. i fill my plate with yellow squash, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, fresh cranberries, and turkey. after finishing off my meal with pie, i go to the den to watch a little football. i am completely stuffed!
