Hello Wednesday. Hello friends. Did you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends? We stayed put, and I put turkey on the table along with some sides and my favorite, pumpkin pie. Like last year, I did not have to share the pie with anyone at the table. I would have shared, gladly. But since they did not want it, I did what any sensible person would do: I put Cool Whip on that pie and ate it from the pie plate with a fork. I promise, I only ate half the pie. It was so good!
I hit the mall with my friend Tiffany on Friday. We have this shopping thing figured out. We go super early (not 2 AM early that is crazy) and we leave when everyone else gets there around noon. We finished up with lunch at Panera. Black Friday is really about girl time. I don’t worry about getting great deals. However, I did managed to score some black skinny jeans and a denim shirt shirt. I may have stood in a ridiculous line at the Disney store for $8 PJ’s. Oh yeah, I did that.
So when I was not cooking, eating pie or shopping I was putting up the tree. This year it took me 3 days. Here is what I wore while I was doing all these Thanksgivingish things:
Left: Red button up (Eddie Bauer), White tank (love it from H&M), Jeans (Edie Bauer)
Center: Vintage Red IU T-shirt (campus store), Denim shirt (American Eagle), Jeans (Gap)
Right: Denim shirt (same) White tank (Old Navy), Skirt (Kohls)

Funny: I must be homesick this time of year, because I looked at my WIWW post from one year ago and there is that same IU shirt. I do miss Thanksgiving with my big family most of all.
So what did you do? Did you eat half a pie? Did you shop?
Talk to me.

I just got a denim shirt this week! Love how you’re wearing it a couple different ways! Always so classy!
And I was running on Thanksgiving morning, sick the rest of the day, then shopping online that night while hubby snagged some store-only Black Friday deals! Friday we decorated and the rest of the weekend we spent traveling to family!
I would have eaten that pie right there with you 🙂 Way to save on dishes by leaving it in the pan!
You are amazing. Running on Thanksgiving? Go you!!!
You know I love you and these WWIW posts!!
I had basketball players & families from the college where I work for Thanksgiving. They couldn’t go home because of the schedule. I ran that morning before anyone got here.
I LOVE pumpkin pie and I would have eaten it with you….probably the WHOLE pie. I’m impressed you stopped at half a pie!
Sounds like you have Black Friday shopping down to a science!!
Hugs~~

I bet they ate a TON of food! But how fun, to have a full house!
Seriously, Stacey I love your style. You don’t know how many times I’ve walked past LOFT and thought of you.
I’m in love with the striped shirt.
Thanksgiving morning I ran a 5k {I’m not hardcore like Erin :-)} and then spend the day with my mom’s side of the family. I didn’t eat the pumpkin pie, but I may or may not have finished off the remains of an apple one for breakfast this morning. and yesterday morning. and the morning before that.
Shopping I did mainly on-line. I took advantage of that whole Kindle Fire for $129 deal.
Kristina that is so fun that you thin of me and Loft together. You should tell them that so I can be an official Loft girl!
And that is an amazing deal on the Kindle Fire! Way to go!
Eat half a pie? Yes.
Go shopping? Yes.
Eat Cool Whip straight from the container?
YES.
Happy Thanksgiving 🙂
Shhh….I do eat from the Cool Whip container too. Have you ever eaten it frozen? Mmmm..
I tried to go shopping, and my husband did buy some $18 dollar pants, but we only lasted about an hour. We had our stroller with us, and trying to navigate through that chaos (even in the afternoon) was too much for me!
Oh, and I love that red button up!
I am more than impressed your husband was out shopping with you! So fun!
