Black Friday is gross. Nicole and I did our best to avoid ravenous soccer moms beating each other up over $6 DVDs (though that would have made for better pictures), and went shopping in places where they sell fish with antlers.

At the beginning of the year when I was first getting used to not eating meat, all I ever wanted was grilled cheese. Now at the end of the year, all I ever want to eat is eggrolls. I feel proud of the fact that I've discovered the two most unhealthy vegetarian foods on the planet.

Nicole made these sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving, then we went to her parents so she could help make dinner. This is what her dinner-making outfit looks like. This is what the saying "too many cooks in the kitchen" looks like. I just uselessly sat in the kitchen and watched the grown-ups cook the turkey and cut it up with an electric turkey saw. Since Thanksgiving is so much about the turkey, I decided to cheat today and eat meat without being guilty. Really, I decided to eat everything and not be guilty. See, everything. Then we drove home to teach Mushroom to be thankful for turkey.

P.s. I was not a part of that line of yahoos camping on the sidewalk in front of Best Buy in the rain. We just drove by to make fun of them and take pictures.
