When I woke up on Thanksgiving day, I went straight to the kitchen to help my mom out; my mom was cutting up potatoes to put them in a pot to make mashed potatoes. I asked her what to do, and she told me to make the macaroni and cheese. I opened the noodle bag, and when I went to put the noodles in the boiling water, I dropped half of the bag of noodles.

I was so hungry and my aunt Paulina was taking forever to get here, she is always late to everything.So my cousins and I started snacking on some scrumptious flaming hots. Finally, my aunt Paulina got there with her delicious potato salad, store-bought pumpkin pie, whip cream, and different flavors of coke. I told my mom “I think you should but the food to heat up because then everyone is going to complain that the food is cold.” and she advised, “yeah we should help me put as much as we can.” I told her to heat it up because I knew that they were going to gossip forever.
