November 19, 2007
I can't believe it's only 3 days away and I have yet to mention The Most Adored Food Holiday In All The Land. Perhaps that is because I forgot. Not so much forgot to write about it as just forgetting about - it. I remember being young and everyone would say, "...just you wait...the older you get, the faster time goes..." And I can remember thinking it was all just a ruse to get me to stop my annoying count down until my 21st birthday. But they did not lie, these people, and if I ran an algebraic calculation of how fast time goes compared to my age and the amount of time I have wasted saying, "Where the Hell does all my time go", X would equal my real age of 121. And it's freaking me out. It's freaking everyone out, actually. I mean, is it me? Or was it just July? All phone messages are urgent. All meetings have to be taken, "RIGHT NOW!" and everyone calls 400 times a day to make sure we are on track and that we have the menu and we are ready for the day and... gasp gasp gasp... we ordered the right color linens... and the list goes on and on and on. Because somewhere around last Tuesday a big giant turkey gobbled it's way through town and slapped everyone upside the head and said, "IT IS ALMOST THANKSGIVING - GOBBLE GOBBLE!" And as much as the ensuing freaking out of The Customers is making me exhasperated, I have to come clean and say that I, too, am having a few moments of complete madness. I sat down yesterday and made a list of things I have to accomplish in the next few weeks, things I have to plan, wrap up, get in place, make happen, and organize before I trolly off and lace up ice skates to take a spin on the most famous rink in all the world. Which brings up yet another item for my checklist - send a note to Mayor Bloomberg with my list of places I plan to visit. I will be bringing a new kind of Klutz to the City That Never Sleeps, and someone needs to be ready for it. Ice skaters, included. I am bad enough with blades in my hand, people. Blades on my feet... someone is bound to get hurt. I just pray to God I don't accidentally tip that tree over.
Don't tell The Husband, we're totally having pizza this year. Posted by Foodwhore at November 19, 2007 09:41 AM 
I totally agree with you FW, this year has FLOWN past and I haven't even begun to think about Thanksgiving, despite the fact I am getting on a plane to fly to Texas in less than 24 hours for the Most Adored Food Holiday (to celebrate with a family that is perpetually on a diet, le sigh). Don't knock over the tree and I won't fillet my mom's boyfriend with a cheese grater, OK? Posted by: ValhallaCook13 at November 19, 2007 02:20 PM Yeah, this year has gone way too fast. Here in NYC, it's mostly freakish because our trees are still mostly green and it's predicted to be in the 50s on Thanksgiving. As far as I'm concerned, this means it's The End of the World. A note about the rink at Rockefeller, though. Be warned that it's a bit overpriced and really crowded. On the plus side, you will see at least 3 proposals, all in the middle of the rink, all with the guy on one knee. Don't plan on Broadway...check out off Broadway instead! Fuerzabruta has been getting amazing reviews. Posted by: Em at November 19, 2007 03:57 PM Skating is FREE at Bryant Park! And it's only a few blocks away fom Rockefeller Center. Plus, there's a really cute holiday market in full swing there. Bryant Park is easily my favorite spot here in The Very Big City. =) Posted by: Kelli at November 19, 2007 05:12 PM FW, go to the meat counter and get a standing rib roast. Wicked easy and more delicious than a turkey. Happy thanksgiving and have a blast in the big city. Posted by: ride&cook at November 20, 2007 09:20 AM  |
