Turkey, an addictive sedative.

The past couple of days have been very boring in the blog department and I blame it all on the turkey. Thursday we cooked 40 pounds of turkey for 10 people to eat and yes that's 5 pounds per person. We also had about 15 pounds of mashed potatoes along with about 5 other side for 12 people to eat. We had tons of leftovers. Every meal since has been turkey, turkey, turkey. I have been so exhausted since Thursday that I don't even want to get out of bed other than to eat more turkey. It is an addictive sedative. That is why I'm going to blame the grumpiness of the Holiday season from thanksgiving until 5-7 days after we run out of turkey, on the turkey. The 5-7 days is to detox from the addictive element of the turkey. Your normal sleep a day must go from 8-10 hours a day to 12-15 hours a day to not be miserable during the turkey consumption period. So if you went out for black Friday at 4am, plan on continuing to be grumpy for several more days because you were behind on sleep from day one. Now you are aware of the reason a 32 year old woman will kick a man in the junk for a great deal on a laptop the day after thanksgiving.
