Okay, I'll share one. One thing about me is that I don't like to cook. I can cook, but really dislike every minute of it. I don't like the planning, the shopping, the preparing, the cleaning up... (notice I did not say I didn't like the eating part! 😂).

So after making full Thanksgiving dinners for my family all by myself with stuffed turkey and all the fixings, I finally decided to enjoy my day and buy one of those full meal packages at the store.

I checked their different packages, found what I thought my family would like best, scrutinized the pick-up times, and placed my order.

A fully cooked complete Thanksgiving dinner complete with pumpkin pie. How nice!

On the big day, I sent my husband to get the dinner while I got a few other things ready. He comes home with the whole meal right on time. Yay!

I open it up... and...

THE ENTIRE COOKED MEAL WAS FROZEN SOLID!! 😮😮😮

Fortunately, with a bit of scrambling and quick thinking, we managed to put together a substitute meal that we all enjoyed. 😊

This has become one of those memorable moments for our entire family! 😂 When anything goes wrong, we just remind ourself, "well, at least it isn't frozen!" 😂 And I've learned to read that teeny-tiny fine print at the bottom of those ads (who sells a frozen meal that takes 2 days to thaw ON Thanksgiving day?!).
