[quote=Anonymous]My mom calls me every year to make sure I’ve been up since 5 am. I think she believes that if you don’t get up pointlessly early, you haven’t properly martyred yourself to the cause. The best was the year I was on the west coast, and she called at 7 am eastern time because I hadn’t texted her to confirm that I’d started the turkey. I used to think Thanksgiving was an impossible meal until I hosted for the first time, and realized that my mom had a lot of arbitrary rules about the order of preparations for the day that made it really challenging. Understatement, but she has some anxiety issues. Yours probably do, too, and nothing will make them relax. But thank you for the laugh bc you described my mom’s Turkey Anxiety so much better than I ever have.[/quote]
