A Day of Thanks
"A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues." - Cicero

In America today is a day for being thankful for the things in people's lives. Today was a day to celebrate family, friends, prosperity and health with food, family and friends. It is a time to reflect on what is important us and to recognize the gratitude we hold for having those things in our lives.

	"No," Maria said with a laugh. "Maggie made it. She took over running the place for Alfred." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The relief on his face is really obvious. "Thank you! You just saved me a night of avoiding turkey and watching everyone else eat it while keeping track of any symptoms you guys come down with. That and explaining to Maggie why I'm not touching the turkey without accidentally making her think I'm vegetarian or allergic to strange things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Even that one is risky. Lucky those things are more replaceable than other appliances...I don't think Alfred ever got over the oven incident." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh man, long story.

He decided that Alfred had to have a vacation and sent him off for a few days. Bad idea, cause the night before he's supposed to come back, dad gets chloroformed. And you know how much those hangovers after suck. So the next day he figured he needed to eat and decided to take one of my frozen pizzas. Somehow, none of us are really sure how, the night before while wandering the kitchen in search of coffee in full Bat gear he managed to crack the outer oven door glass. Bad enough right? Well when he's making this pizza, he gets impatient and decides to open it to check while drinking cold water. Spills the cold water on the inner glass of the door. Hot glass, cold water, bam! It's cracked. So now he's managed to crack both layers of glass on that door. He's still hungover so he doesn't really notice. Leaves the kitchen.

I'm doing homework and Alfred comes back so I go to welcome him. And literally as Alfred is putting down his bags? BAM! Giant explosion from the kitchen shakes the whole manor. We rush over and the oven glass has exploded and the door is almost off it's hinges. Glass all over. You should have seen their faces.

Let's just say Alfred banned him on the spot from ever stepping foot in that kitchen again."

	Maria blinked and then started laughing. "That so sounds like Bruce. A Bruce." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Is it bad that I find that the fact that he's a disaster magnet in the kitchen in any universe comforting? I hope he hasn't blown up part of the kitchen here..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Find it comforting that some things are the same no matter where you go." She shook her head. "No. We did a decent job of keeping him out of the kitchen." (Reply to this)(Parent)
