When I think of food, I think of “The Cousins.” Family on my mom side, who are so AWESOME. It makes me think of my papa who was the best person to walk this planet, he may have not been a great cook and could only help with getting drinks or putting sandwich ingredients out on the table for lunch but he was sure always there for the great feasting times with the family!
Thanksgiving is always the best time getting together with my family and not only being happy being together but celebrating my papa. We always make the big turkey and of course after eating take nap time like our papa would in his awesome broke in recliner chair. Have to have the mashed potatoes with EXTRA gravy with pepper on top just like he would. Corn on the cob swirled in butter, stuffing of course! But even after all of it and the whole sha-bang of thanksgiving dinner, my favorite of his is after our awesome nap and pulling out the dominoes for game time, it was making the cold turkey sandwich! Classic after the nap with just two pieces of bread, mayo, or for him miracle whip and a piece of lettuce.
As wrong as it is but yet funny because your little and think your such a little rebel, like I did. I took after my papa and his “winning” ways in dominoes., up the sleeve with the extra ones you don’t need. We were a team, an ornery one at that! It was fun and we laughed a lot and specially the time I blew it. My cousin Kati, (who by the way is like dominoes champ, for the reals) caught our tricks or at least just mine. She bumped into my sleeve. (ha-ha) everyone knew who put me up to it though so I didn’t have to tell!
