- Dec 1, 2020
Having already made it to December 1st I feel strange recounting Thanksgiving as it already seems like it could be so far in the past. But here I am recounting the past holiday and simultaneously saying.... HOLY CRAP HOW IS IT DECEMBER?!
Thanksgiving
Because my parents and I decided not to travel this year for Covid safety reasons, I stayed in NYC with my boyfriend, Chris, and our room mate and we had a sweet little dinner on Friday.
I attempted roasted whole fish. (did you know fish are bony? oh man, I need to learn the proper way to eat a fish without getting many little bones in every bite.) I'll give myself a thumbs up for taste though....
The apple pie however, was not bony at all. Samin's all-butter pie dough wins again!
(See cherry pie post from last summer)
but like, how is it December already?!
Just a few days shy of 4 months in New York and I'm so glad I made this move. Yeah, it's weird ass times. Yes, I miss my parents SO MUCH and am very sad that I won't see them this holiday season. Absolutely, I ride the train every day and it's usually full enough to not allow for proper social distancing.
But for the first time in a long time I'm not trying to get to somewhere else because I'm right where I've wanted, and maybe needed, to be.
More soon. xoxo,
