I love the "idea" of serving Thanksgiving dinner. And I'm proud that I have not yet murdered my mother on this special holiday. (You can read our traditional Thanksgiving dialogue on my blog.. )
Yea, but sometimes I wonder... Is everyone around us unable to make a decision because we are control freaks, and they've learned they better do things "our" way, or have we become control freaks because no one is capable of making their own decisions so if we want anything to ever get done, we have to take charge? Just typing that ridiculous sentence made me tired.

But it all backfires during clean up time. "Where does this go?" "what dish should I put this in?" "Throw out or keep" Ay yi yi. Endless questions.
