Another Holiday!

Another Holiday!

Another holiday is fast approaching. Thanksgiving Day is one more excuse to eat till we drop. lol I really love Thanksgiving dinner. Just the thought of it makes my mouth water. The one good thing about being single is all the invitations to Thanksgiving dinner. So many options and so little time.

I could drive to the Golden Triangle and have two meals there. Perhaps go to Austin with my best friend and her wonderful family. I could also head back home and have several meals with many of my relatives. Of course, there is always Nevada to partake of my first meal with my beloved little brother (who is almost 6 feet)and his lovely wife.

So, I have decided to instead stay home. I have invited my mother to have Thanksgiving dinner with me. The menu shall include a smoked turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn, corn bread, pumpkin pie, cheese cake, cranberry sauce, stuffing and anything else that our little hearts desire.

Who knows after an excellent meal, we may just take off to Kemah or Galveston. It will be an excellent event for us. I'm not sure if Julio will spend Thanksgiving with us or go spend it with Arman. Oh well! He will be missed. lol

Where ever life takes y'all. I just wanted to take a moment to wish y'all a very Happy Thanksgiving Day. :o)

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

Yo creo que seria buena idea seguir tu dieta especial.

Deberas que estas muy activo: " hago maratones, yoga , natacion"

Que envidia te tengo. No hecho ejercicios en varios meses por mi trabajo y me siento muy cansada.

Realmente necesito comenzar a hacer ejercicios otra vez.

Feliz dia de accion de gracias.........

Rain check

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

bajenaghe naghi,

Wow! You figured out what I usually do. I love collecting on those rain check meals all throughout the year. Yummy!

On the yam or squash menu. I am more of a squash kind of woman.

Well, if Julio and Arman can't join my mom and I then we girls will just have a lot of fun on our own. :o)

I do have a convertible .......zoom....zoom .......zoom.

If I were you I would get a rain check from everyone who wants to invite you and at your leisure you can visit them during the coming year to have a great cooked meal.

I also like smoked turkey but instead of having mashed potato I usually cook either yam or squash and if I am in a good mood, both :-)

I hope your son can join you.

golden triangle.......

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

Yolanda,

Man you are amazingly intelligent and versatile. I continue to be in awe and humbled by your intellect.:o)

Golden Triangle area in my case is as far from Asia as one can get. lol

http://en.wikipedia.org/.../Beaumont–Port_Arthur_metropolitan_area

It originally refers to the Beaumont, Orange and Port Arthur area. However, there is also Nederland, Port Neches, and Groves nearby.

Thank you so much for your comment. I learned a lot as usual.

Take care....

I hear the violin and it sounds broken!

by Anonymouse on

U know it I know it & the American People know it (Bob Dole ;-) 

We talked about the "ethnic" yada yada yada! We agreed that having some Mexican decoration(s) can be fun.  We agreed to have either a big Mexican straw hat, a big belt buckle or something that you could surprise us with.  We had a deal!

Haji is now all head over heals and in love and hesitant and commital and then non commital and the story goes on!  

Everything is sacred.


Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez

No eres carnivoro.....Wow!

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

Valgame Dios! Yo pense que eras muy carnivoro. Con tantas bellezas en tu vida. Pense que tenias un apetito voraz. lol

Ahora, hablando en serio, yo si soy carnivora. No como mucha carne pero cuando lo hago me encanta una buena lucheleta hecha al "medium rare".

Gracias por leer mi escritura humilde y por las felicitaciones.

un abrazo para vos.......

Cry me a river......:o)

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

 Raton,

Do you hear the violins playing in the background for ya. Whahaha

Man give me a break! My people left the old country to have a better way of life, not so they could be more ethnic.

What is this with "the American people know it!" hahahaha

When did they get involved?

You are just way too funny.

I see that you are still causing havoc on other people's blogs. Hmmmmmm

I saw you post a comment about starting a fight.

tsk tsk tsk.......

What is up with this Haji whatever's love life?

 Cheers!

So tragic......

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

 MPD,

Yeah it is too bad that I won't be going to Nevada. I had to tell my brother "I am so sorry to miss your birthday." He said "Very funny Nati. You are just too funny."

His birthday is actually in the summer. lol Hey! What can I say, once a big sister ....always a pain in the a**. :o)

You know I was looking forward to watching a friend of mine in action. He has this side job working for his brother in a gas station in Nevada. I was going to sooooo love giving him a difficult time while he worked. :o) Oh well! Such is life.

Maziar 58,

I too love having Turkey leftovers. I don't eat it as a sandwich. I rather just eat it the traditional way, just over and over again.

Thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind comment.

Cheers!

by Natalia Alvarado-Alvarez on

Did you forget that during our negotiations,  I clearly stated that my family was not going to go for the ethnic look.

Also, Thanksgiving Day is not Mexican Food Day. Hello! The Mexicans had nothing to do with the pilgrims. lol

I also told you none of us drink Tequila with worms. We are a worm free family.lol

Now, Christmas time is a whole other ball game.

Too bad you're not going to Nevada to visit your brother for....

...National Turkey Day, otherwise you would've been able to gamble away all your money that you really don't need.  Well, there is always next year.  Keep on saving.  Keep on writing.  Keep on keeping on.

Nothing Mexican?! No huge Mexican hats or food or anything?!

by Anonymouse on

 I thought you said you were going to have a Mexican feast with Mexican decorations, tequilas (w/ worms ;-) and all that other good stuff.  So if you're not going to have a huge feast for a photo essay at least have a blog with one picture?!

Everything is sacred.

Hi! Natalia,

    I love Thanksgiving! I can't wait! I love your accompanying picture, it is so beautiful, the juicy and golden brown turkey......What is Golden Triangle? A city? A restaurant? The only Golden Triangle I know is in Asia, it is a notorious opium producing area:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Triangle_(Southeast_Asia)

Oh my gosh, your article makes me so hungry!! BTW, I like turkey drumsticks, wings, gizzard, and neck, I also like mashed potato. I may get 2nd turkey for X-mas. Hopefully I can get a good deal this year!

take care!

yolanda
