It's the Thanksgiving Day long weekend in Canada. Because Monday is the statutory holiday, a lot of people cook a colossal meal on Sunday and take Monday off to recover from the binge.
I'm off to my mother's house right now. I suppose I'll be back 6000 calories heavier. It's no big deal, because I'm so active. My sister-in-law, however, will eat like a bird and not get into the pig-out spirit of the day. It sort of annoys me to watch her poking around at a couple of turnips on her plate while I'm washing down the mashed potatoes with a bottle of wine. I'm not big on the holidays, but I do love free food.
What do you guys do on special occasions like this? Do you stuff your maw with as much food as you can cram in, or do you eat sensibly?
