It’s been one week since Thanksgiving. And it’s taken me this long to have six extra seconds to post about it. Holiday season business is no joke, you guys.

Anyway, Thanksgiving was awesome. Michiel and I went to visit my brother and his wife—who is eight months pregnant!—at their cozy home in the Massachusetts countryside.  The holiday was about 50% sleeping, 40% eating more food than is socially acceptable, and 10% other fun things like hikes in the woods, exploring Concord, Mass. walking around Harvard’s campus, and checking out the Christmas lights in Quincy Market. In my fantasy life, this is how my time would always be split.
