Does Todd look like Chuck Bass? You be the judge.

Doug on Youtube...

I know. I'm so lame. I actually posted a video of my dog on youtube. Who am I? Twenty-something professional Or Closet crazy Cat Lady? Hmmm. The world may never know.

We watched this video that my sister sent us called "Pug Head Tilt" on Youtube last night and while we were watching it, Doug was very intrigued by the dogs on the screen. Here is the original and his reaction.

Enjoy,

Thanksgiving

I've been called Un-American several times lately (jokingly of course). But for a girl who was at one point referred to as "The All-American Girl" in college, I must admit this feels a little strange.

The first was during a recent discussion about breakfast cereals. I admitted to some colleagues that when I ate cereal, I had to eat it without milk. Judging by the reaction on their faces, You would have thought I told them that I ate dog food for breakfast.

Anyway, the second instance was during a discussion about the upcoming holiday when I admitted that I didn't really enjoy the traditional Thanksgiving meal. It's not that I have some hatred toward turkey or the holiday or anything like that. In fact, I enjoy it! Especially the time with family and the whole 'giving thanks' part (and even the football!) But the point is, I don't really see why everyone gets soooo excited about it. There are SO many things that I would rather have!

So, In the spirit of Thanksgiving, the Un-American girls would like to create a list of meals that I would be very thankful to eat instead of Turkey & Mashed potatoes:

1. Salmon with fruit salsa
2. Pad Thai with shrimp and tofu
3. Greek Salad with fresh baked pita and tzatziki sauce
4. Shrimp, Mango & Avocado Stack
5. Papaya Salad
6. Seared Ahi Tuna
7. Sesame crusted Scallops
8. Yummy fish tacos from Mexico taco stand
9. Pear and Gorgonzola Salad
10. Steak with a delicious BBQ Sauce

Now, just TRY & tell me your mouth isn't watering from that list.

As a side note, I'm definitely not whining about this years Thanksgiving dinner, just bringing up the idea of broadening our horizons a bit. I had a lovely Thanksgiving this year with Jeff's parents down in the Arizona Sun. I definitely appreciate the effort that both Suzanne and My Mom have always made to make add some special non-traditional Thanksgiving dishes that I do enjoy.
