Fun Thanksgiving Weekend Stats

  • Number of days we were in Ohio: 4
  • Number of days we went to bed before 1am: 0
  • Number of tanks of gas used by mom's PT Cruiser (which we borrowed for the trip) compared to the typical number for my old Golf: 5/2.5
  • Number of pounds of cheese purchased at Heini's Cheese Chalet: >7
  • Number of cans of Genny Cream Ale imported over state lines (you can't get it here): 30
  • Number of bottles of Breitenbach Winery wine Grandma gave us for Christmas: 2 (one is for Peter, actually)
  • Number of different groups of friends and relatives we visited with: 6
  • Number of hours on the road, not including in-town trips: 18-20
  • Number of Krispy Kremes consumed on said road: 5 (although there was half a box waiting for us at home last night, courtesy of Christian)

It was a nice trip, but I wish we could have spent more time with any of the people we saw. It felt like we were rushing from place to place most of the time. Oh well, we'll be going out to see Cinnamon's family again in early January for a late Christmas (we're going out to Arizona to be with my mom's family at Christmas -- the first without my grandfather) so we'll get to spend much more time with them then. And hopefully we'll get to spend more than an evening with Tom and Rosa this summer.

That's a lot of cheese. I hope that 7+ pounds wasn't all the same kind of cheese. Or, if it was, that it's the best kind of cheese in the world.

No, it's various kinds, and it's not all for us. I think we're keeping around half that.
