I was expecting to eat alone Thanksgiving Day eating a turkey frozen dinner.
Unexpected I was invited to a Thanksgiving Party that is a three hour drive one way from my home. Home Cooking won over a frozen dinner so Thanksgiving Day I left early and drove to the party. I only knew the couple that invited me and of course I was the only single person present as everyone else were couples. Three big tables of food ! one table of before dinner nit nats, one table of real home cooking, and one table of desserts.
Yes, I made two trips to the three tables. After dinner cleanup consisted of wrapping the leftovers up. The plates, cups/glasses and silverware which I thought were real turned out to be disposables, so everything went in the garbage. The drive home took more than three hours as I was not in a hurry.
I thought it was very kind and thoughtful for this couple to remember a single guy on a Holiday.
