Thanksgiving 2024 Update and Lessons Learned
After my wife made Thanksgiving dinner she asked me to carve the Turkey. While carving the Turkey I noticed that there was only dark meat and not white meat. The Turkey was given to us by one of my sons and it wasn't a name brand so we thought maybe it was a dark meat Turkey.
We ate dinner and everything was delicious including the potatoes, 2 kinds of stuffing, broccoli, corn and the Turkey. After we finished eating my wife was in the kitchen and she came to the realization that the Turkey was upside down. When she turned the Turkey over there was a ton of white meat so we had Thanksgiving dinner again for the next 2 days then she made a Turkey soup which was very good.
I can't complain about the upside down Turkey as below is an image form last year when my wife attempted to cook Thanksgiving dinner. Just kidding honey!!

| Thanksgiving Dinner 2023 |
On the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving I went to the gym and there was a good amount of people likely trying to work off everything they ate on Thanksgiving. This always happens after Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years every year but most people stop going after a very short time.
I worked out longer and harder on Friday and Saturday than I usually do as in addition to all the Turkey and potatoes I also had some Blueberry pie and some Apple pie. On Friday I was back to eating healthy which included significantly reduced sugar and carb consumption. I will take the same approach on Christmas Eve\Christmas Day and I will make sure there cheat days don't become cheat weeks or cheat months.
Now I am trying to convince my wife to make or buy "Figgy Pudding" as I hear in sung in Christmas songs like "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" but I have never had it. She thinks I am out of my mind. I will keep everyone updated on project "Figgy Pudding".
I also noticed on Saturday that the geese were no longer outside the local grocery store (Market Basket) so I guess they took the weekend off.
