Thanksgiving courtesy of Whole Foods Market. (11/22/07)
Tim took the first driving shift, while I slept. Then after refueling somewhere near Mendota, I took the wheel while Tim slept.

We got to San Ramon around 8:30 a.m. We had some breakfast (our family doesn't have Thanksgiving dinner until it's actually dinner time, around 6:00 pm) and then spent the rest of the day hanging out with the kids, watching Ratatouille, etc. We also managed to sneak in a quick nap.

Since we didn't feel like spending half the day cooking, we opted to order our Thanksgiving dinner from Whole Foods Market. It was a little pricey, but well worth it when you consider that my stepmom has a three-year-old and a five-month-old to take care of. (The eight-year-old, the thirty-eight-year-old and the forty-six-year old — aka Anna, James and Robert — were capable of entertaining themselves, as were Tim and my Dad).

As everyone else probably does, we ate too much. We were hardly hungry for the pumpkin pie. But I'm sure we'll get around to it tomorrow.

Ah, Whole Foods...OK...now those plain black serving dishes make sense. When I first saw them I thought they were some hip Euro minimalist ware your Dad picked up at IKEA or something! Ha!
Well, grocery store feast or not, that turkey looks delicious!!
I don't see Tim. Is he there enjoying that great food too? :-)
I was there enjoying the great food too :) Everything from Whole Foods was very good; it didn't taste "pre-fabricated" at all. I think I liked the Mole that Malena made the next day from the turkey leftovers. Yum!
