Hey y’all.
It was just T-givez, Ashlee saw that I titled my post as t-givez and then saved it as a draft, and she titled her post t-givez also. BUST’d. JKDC.
I always say, “happy t-givez” and people are like, “WHAT?” and I’m like Happy Thanksgiving, DUH. Rude, they should just know what t-givez is. It’s pretty self-explanatory. Just kidding y’all.
So for T-givez I went with a girl from work, Kris, to a Thanksgiving buffet at a fancy restaurant in Houston called, Americas (with an apostrophe over the i). I told her that I wanted contemporary American food, and she saw that the title of the restaurant had America in it, so she picked Americas. Actually it is just Latin American food, and had nothing to do with North America, or contemporary North American food. But it was okay, because the food was great!!!
My mom helped me pick my outfit because, “I want you to find a young single doctor”, she said. I said, “Mom, like there are going to be any doctors there even”, and she said, “well you are going…”.
There were no doctors there, just large families that were having family togetherness. So it was a bust in that respect.
On the restaurant description on opentable.com it said that the dress was business casual, so my friend and I both wore dresses. Upon arrival at Americas we found that it was business casual optional, because there were quite a few people there wearing blue jeans. The wait staff asked us why we were dressed up, and if we were going to a party afterwards, and we said, “this is the party!”
The restaurant was awesome, the food was great, the wait staff was amazing, and it was fun to be out with Kris. But in the end I just wish I would have been with my family at home having a families Thanksgiving. How every Thanksgiving should be.
Here are some pics from the day.
Not great pics of the food, but it was delish, I pinky swear.
PANAROMA! (thank you iphone IOS 6)
As it turns out we ate crepes and I realized that I am crepe lady. Eating crepes everywhere I go, with photo evidence and everything.
I ate crepes in Hungary, the top left picture; France, bottom left; and most recently Houston Tx at Americas, for T-givez.
TOTZ crepe lady.
Also they had these little mini deserts so good.
Let’s go have a family Thanksgiving meal together please.
Love you,
Melissa
