Mashed Potatoes are boss... my cousin and I were notorious at family gatherings for eating them all between the two of us... and that tradition remains alive for me today! Of course, we don't go to the same gatherings much anymore, but I like to think he's still devouring the potatoes alongside me.
.....Never let modern day travesties harm the memory of greatness.

I'm sure they'd love us to jump on the commercial bandwagon like with Halloween but don't see it happening for this one
Why? You will look very festive with a bright green apple in your mouth and cranberry sauce strategically spread across your body.

The world is full of pain and sorrow.
Life is fleeting and true moments of joy are few and far between.
Happiness is laced with shards of pain.
