Sanity Quiz

Thanksgiving is almost upon us! Ladies, how well have you maintained your sanity during holiday preparations? Take this quick quiz! Which of the following have you done? Check all that apply:

a) Attempted to grocery shop the day before Thanksgiving

b) Made three trips to three different grocery stores in as many days

c) Hit the liquor store in early November because you learned one year that the busiest day of the year is the day before Thanksgiving. (As it was explained to me by a proprietor, "Well, yeah! Everyone realizes they're stuck with their family for a long weekend, so they make a run for the liquor store Wednesday night!")

d) Prepared two types of meat, two kinds of stuffing, two types of cranberry sauce and three vegetables in the name of maintaining peace in the extended family*

e) Took photos of toys in the Stop & Shop parking lot


Scoring:

1-2: You and every other American! You're perfectly normal!
3-4: You could stand to learn to say "no."
5-6: Girlfriend, you're clearly losing it. Pour yourself a glass of wine!



*I drew the line this year at two desserts and three types of potatoes, too. They can grumble all they want about only one kind of pie.
