Tofurky Day is coming!
I am home in Boise for Thanksgiving and looking forward to the delicious Tofurky I'll be making on Thursday. If you've never tried this delicious vegan holiday roast, you gotta (even if you hate tofu, trust me, you'll love it)! It smells like turkey, tastes like turkey (well, from what I can remember anyway), but doesn't have that nasty side affect that comes with actual turkey - the DEATH of a sentient being. Don't forget to baste the Tofurky profusely and smother it in vegan gravy. Mmm, mmm good!Of course, I'm looking forward to spending time with family even more than the Tofurky, but my mind gets kinda stuck on food sometimes. We'll be having a pretty simple Thanksgiving with my parents, sister, and cousins Emily (and her boyfriend Wes) and Aaron. There will be food, wine, and lots of good old-fashioned family togetherness. Oh joy! I can't believe it's already the holiday season and snow will be falling soon (well, it better be, cuz I want to get some snowboarding in). The fall has gone pretty fast, and as we head into winter I am reminded of how lucky I am and how much I have to be thankful for. I am awfully grateful to have such a loving & supporting family, a wonderful man to share life with, two adorable healthy fur-children, a good job with co-workers who rock, and many great friends. It's times like Thanksgiving that make me think, "ahhh, ain't life grand?"
I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving - don't forget to count your blessings and be thankful for all you have. I know I will. Now, go get yourself a Tofurky & give it a try! You'll never go back to dead bird. ;)
