  7. Max-No way! How on Earth can anyone not like stuffed duck. I've personally never had it but it sounds and looks AMAZING! I saw it in the movie Julie and Juliet and ever since then I want to try it. Next time have you're parents slay over the kitchen for 7 hours and I'm sure they will apprecaite it much more! Just keep cooking good food and you're family will have to eventually come around!

    fan of casey-hahaha. We didn't go for sushi this year. I know, it was quite depressing when I got the news. :( There seemed to be enough food already on the menu so sushi will have to wait to till next year

    Phunk Factor- No your right, Christmas dinner is probably like that but my family does The Seven Fishes. It's an Italian thing. Super delicious though :)

    BDNY- Thanks! Spring semester is great so far. I got really cool teachers for all my classes. I left the fraternity because of financial issues and I plan on joining a few clubs on campus to get active and meet people with similar interests. Haha I'll have to tell my dad to start making an invitation list

    Konrad- Haha thanks bud! $1 elf hat from the dollar store. Whadddup!

    SFC- I do, my family is a fun group to be around. Thanks! My holiday was fantastic, hope yours was as well
