Turkey Day & a Trip to AMA

Since I had to work Wednesday (lame, I know) we arrived in Amarillo early, early Thursday morning.... Just in time to eat.

Thanksgiving was great. I think the last time we had all of my grandparents & parents in the same place was my wedding... And well it's been almost 3 years since that, so we were due for some extended family time.

My favorite Thanksgiving dishes?

1. Nena's homemade chocolate pie

2. Grandma's homemade rolls

3. Mandarin orange salad

Multi Striped Sweater::: Double Diamond (purchased from The Rach in Canyon)

Jeggings::: Trouve

Short Pull on boots in black::: Marc by Marc Jacobs (borrowed from Juju)

So I definitely struggled with what to wear on Thanksgiving. I tried on several "cuter" options, but they all felt to binding for a day of lounging around the lakehouse. When I finally decided on this tunic from The Rack I immediately wished I owned dark brown flat boots. I have some in chestnut, but I think I'd get my wear out of a dark brown pair. Add that to my never-ending want list...

While we went shopping on Black Friday we stayed away from the mall & waited until after lunch to venture out. I spent a whopping $15 on some black jeggings from Old Navy.

&&& I love my husband because he willingly participated in Black Friday shopping.

Restaurant Review.

I'm all about trying new things. I love experiencing new & different places in Dallas, especially when they live up to my expectations.

Saturday we went to Campisis, which was supposedly a Dallas must. It's supposedly the last place that Jack Ruby ate before the assassination of Lee Harvy Oswald. Also, the Campisi family was very "thick" with Lee Harvy Oswald and had known associations with organized crime. See? Sounds pretty intriguing.

It was a disappointment. The atmosphere was sub par & reminded me of a Pizza Hut with a bar. The pizza was ok, but I honestly like Domino's new garlic crust pizza better. The best thing they had going for them was the garlic cheesy bread, which I must admit was delicious. But that was it.

&&& I love my husband because he took me out for date night Saturday.
