Thanksgiving in San Diego

Curtis and I went to his Mom's house for thanksgiving. Which was cool, because this was the first time I met any of his family members. So now I know Curtis's Mom is real and he did not just make her up.


Curtis's Mom's family is all Filipino, so altogether there were only one and a half white people there. (Me and Curtis.) It was cool though, 'cause in addition to the traditional Thanksgiving foods, we also got to have some Filipino favorites. The home-made fried rice and Lumpia were both very good. (Lumpia is sort-of like a cross between egg-rolls and pot stickers, very tasty.)


So yeah, that was our Thanksgiving.


On another note, it's really wonderful to have a man in the house. This morning I was about to hop in the shower when I saw a fairly large spider crawling on the shower curtain, and I was able to run and get Curtis to kill it for me.


Very convenient.

I totally forgot you were near Curtis's mom. Curtis's mom looks very cool. Did you get some recipes? Were there other family members there like his brother?

Hooray for spider killers. Also jar-openers, heavy lifters, and door-openers.

I'm so glad you had a happy thanksgiving.

p.s. I do often scream for Lee to help identify a beetle (-THATS NOT A COCKROACH IS IT LEE?? -No, honey, it's just a brown ladybug. -Oohh, niice...) I have occassionally been called into kill a spider for him. Just between you and me.

p.p.s. That food looks really good.
