With pretty much everyone going to family get-togethers and all the lovely meals this past week I thought I’d write something about the Thanksgiving week. One of the main things I hear around Thanksgiving time is “imagine the calories I’ll have to walk off this week!” and quite frankly it gets on my nerves. The same thing happens on every holiday. I think that people do tend to eat more than usual on holidays because there’s all that food and people don’t want to make their parents or in-laws feel bad that there is leftovers. Another things I hear around Thanksgiving of course is how the hunting season has been. Now I know that not everyone hunts and some people live in towns so they don’t have the same opportunities, but for those that do hunt it’s quite a treat. It’s hilarious to listen to all relatives and siblings when they come home from hunting, especially if they miss a deer because they can come up with some pretty fascinating stories. I find it interesting how most hunters just cant come clean and say “I missed.”

Haha this made me laugh. I totally agree with what your're saying though. I hunt, and i have never heard anybody just say "i missed." I am one of those people who eat alot at Thanksgiving because there is so much good food i can't let it go to waste. I don't worry about losing weight because i am active, but everyone else does.
ReplyDeleteI also find hunting stories hilarious. Even when I got my first deer with a bow, we couldn't find it at first. We let it sit over night and I kept talking about how it was the biggest doe I had ever seen and how I know I hit it. When we finally found it the next morning, it turned out that it was only a yearling. I was quite embarrassed, but my memory exaggerated it because of my excitement. It's funny to look back now. (It was a perfect shot, however, not to brag) :P
