If you happen to be Canadian, you know that this weekend is the Canadian Thanksgiving Long Weekend.  Monday also happens to be my oldest son’s 10th birthday so all in all, I’m doing a lot of eating this weekend.  Four dinners and a party with some brunches thrown in for good measure!  I wondered if I should wear pants to stay at least a little controlled or a dress to stay comfortable.  I ended up splitting the difference and wearing jeans – waistband to remind me not to eat a whole ham – and a forgiving top – that won’t judge me for having three pieces of pie per day.

1. I'm thankful for being tall... because I can eat more.  (Sorry petites.)
