What’s on the menu!

I went to my first vegan Thanksgiving dinner. It was surprisingly good but not very filling. The gravy was by far the most authentic tasting. There was plenty of interesting talk around the dinner table about the faux turkey being tasty, but a little tough(cardboard,) and needing some work on the recipes in general. There was a large variety of foods on the table to choose from and I ate modestly putting gravy on everything.

No stores were open on Thanksgiving and I couldn't find turkey anywhere including restaurants. So, after several attempts, I went to Waffle House. They laughed when I said I'd left a vegan dinner and was starving! I was going to leave when one of the ladies suggested a good old fashioned American double cheeseburger with mushrooms and grilled onions, which I got to go. I also had several cheesecake slices waiting at home.

This is a terrific story. Such sadness and horror but the tragedy turned to victory.

Well fellas. The Saints stink but there's always comfort in a good burger.
