EDIT: Most Viral? Awe. You beautiful humans. I didn't even have my tax! You made my day. THANK you. Really. "There's no place like home!"

And Happy Thanksgiving to you, kind stranger!

Why you no turkey?
ChasingAimee
The store was completely out. Or, more realistically, lack of planning on my part.
Carantathraiel
Honestly, I was looking for a dildo in the background. All the same, it's nice to eat alone once in a while. I take books to diners.
ChasingAimee
Hmm ? dinner AND fun for one? Sounds like a great plan (;
teamnicedynamite
That is the proper whipped cream to pie ratio
ChasingAimee
Glad you agree ?

Beautiful

Me; last Friday thinking of Thanksgiving. Dogs to dogpark, other single people there. Create Thanksgiving with strangers. Worked well. Yay.
ChasingAimee
Wow. That's like a dream. Happy FriendsGiving to you!! What goodies did you make ?

@OP If it makes you feel better, I ate alone too... Mind we don't celebrate thanksgiving here.
FisheswithDynamite
1 croissant and 1 deviled egg? Someone is a paragon of self control.

I'm never alone , I have cats
blueyedwineaux
Same. Cheers to pets!
ChasingAimee
Cheers ?
ChasingAimee
Same, but I have three dogs and am super grateful for their company (:
TheSwedishCryptid
wow your dogs must be brilliant, being ceo of their own company! :o
MantisTobagganMD
Can I just say....that gravy looks gross as fuck
DoomSquirter
I thought it was poop. :(
ChasingAimee
Lmao yes it does!! it's beef tips because the store was completely out of any kind of turkey. Not even a frozen compressed turkey loaf \:
MeowMachine12
Haha It looks super thick
ChasingAimee

How else are you supposed to eat?! Huh
alotofpot
Too bad someone pooped on her potatoes
ChasingAimee
?? ?? it definitely looked like shiitake, but it tasted good ??
pennypoohbear
This would be me. I am a woman, all alone on Thanksgiving, making beef Wellington.
ChasingAimee
OooOoOOooo post a pic please ??
pennypoohbear
Cooking it right now. Soon as it's made I will post
joygamesinteractive
why is it great deal to eat alone? did i, and several of us miss something in the middle? there is a prohibition on eating alone? taxes?
joygamesinteractive
are there life threats on those you eat alone? why is it brave or special? what is the difference between a man and a woman eating alone?
pennypoohbear
It's no big deal to eat alone. But to eat alone on Thanksgiving that's the thing. It's not the preferred way
karlostroski
My college community was always fearful of eating alone. “What if someone thinks you have no friends?!?” Huh? I love eating alone.
ChasingAimee
Good on you! I go out to eat alone quite often. Never had to have Thanksgiving alone. I will never forget this time in my 1/2
ChasingAimee
life. While cooking, I kept reminding myself all I'm grateful for. If I got a lump in my throat, I would list a blessing. Good music helped

What a phenomenally smooth cat
RedLanternGrodd
Not afraid to eat alone but I wouldn't mind company
YeOldeImgurian
There's something about anyone who goes through elaborate eating rituals purely for social media that scares me
ChasingAimee
This wasn't for social media. This was purely for ME. I always put so much effort into others - it was high time I did the same for myself
spiceass9000
Posting a picture of your food and captioning it like that makes me feel you very much have a problem with it and are trying to compensate
ChasingAimee
So what? What's wrong w/validating myself? Especially if I'm recently learning how to? I need to practice. Give me a safe space to do that
spiceass9000
It’s just contradictory is all I’m saying. But you do you, learning to be happy alone is arguably the most important life skill, if this
spiceass9000
Helps you do that then good, ignore me
ChasingAimee
I have many parts to me, and sometimes they may be "contradictory", but I still love them all. Thanks for your kind words ??
RavingIrradiator213
Good for you! You're a Rockstar and absolutely killing it
ChasingAimee
Awe thank you. Not bad for an impromptu dinner, ehh?? ???
RavingIrradiator213
Not one bit! I spend a lot of time alone and ear many a meal alone myself. If you ever want to chat feel free
ChasingAimee
Okay. Thank you ??. And Happy Thanksgiving
RavingIrradiator213
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well
JOKERZwild86
With my multiple personalities, I’m never alone
darkhalfbreed
That's a weird thing to say about yourself
ChasingAimee
I'm totally okay with being weird. I'll own that all day long as opposed to being dim witted and judgemental.
BitchinBotanist
Did you steal my dog?!?
ChasingAimee
Who me
BitchinBotanist
Can’t see it in the pic but he’s got the same white patch
BitchinBotanist
Oh im sorry, my phone is janky - you can borrow him ?

They do look alike! Mine is a female - Millie (: ?
taskinroe
Well done. It is a lovely spread
ChasingAimee
Thank you! I just had my second piece of pie. This time, it was toffee apple ? Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for your kind words ?
CutChemist
This is my first Thanksgiving away from family. G parents have now all passed. Hung out with the entire work crew, including our owners ?
ChasingAimee
I'm so sorry about your Gparents. Mine too. I'm happy you were surrounded by people you felt were like family. Blessings are around, eh?
CutChemist
Exactly how I felt. It was more of explaining the situation and how happy I was more than anything.
CutChemist
And I’m truly sorry for your loss as well ? the baton has passed to my parents generation
CutChemist
It was on par with my drunktard family (the good buzz type) but with everyone I work with, 10 in total. It was super enjoyable.
zozozo333
Eating alone sounds much better
ChasingAimee
I almost cried, but then decided to decorate like I was having someone over. I made myself guest of honor. Store was outta turkey, though \:
zozozo333
Turkey is overrated! Congrats on guest of honor tho!
ChasingAimee
You made my heart feel warm. Thank you.
AskThisGuy
Either they are talking about themselves, which is weird, or some is talking about them which would make the statement incorrect.
ChasingAimee
I am definitely weird. Thank you ??
joygamesinteractive
you are weird because you eat alone... wow, the bar is too low nowadays.
Rulesy
Looks like a cat took a runny shit on the plate?
ddcrowFlyer
And she said there was no cat tax.. it was there all along
BlahstateofMind
And this is why I fucking love Imgur, Classic!
ChasingAimee
I truly thought the same after posting. I was kinda bummed, tbqf. And then I read this comment and...well...it's still making me smile ?
Artoris
Just a touch toouch flour, nbd.
ChasingAimee
Whatcha gonna do with all those LUMPS...?
s0ng8SpaceDog
I was just gonna say something, buy I saw you called it out.
ChasingAimee
This made me spit out my ginger ale from laughing - it totally DOES!!
MrMetroid
Entire bag of Bisto run through a cat's ass

No gravy shaming please
abhorance
That's not gravy, that's brown toothpaste
BlackCatSerenade99900
Gravy shaming! I'm crying!!
ChasingAimee
Oh, yes! Right.
culinarydream7224
I agree... to a point. We are past that point
ChasingAimee
It's beef tips!! ? The store had ZERO kind of turkey, but it seriously looks like dookie - it's okay. It adds to the fun of this post.
culinarydream7224
Lol, I think the scientific term for that is an oobleck. Just add more stock or add the roux in portions and you have much sexier gravy
chickenoodlesoup
This is simply not realistic at all - there's only one deviled egg on the plate??? I call BS.
DaveSamsonite
It’s to make sure it’s low carb.
Orcus424
In my head they ate the rest while making dinner. That's what I would do.
jessavader
By dinner time, I’m lucky if there’s one left to go on the dinner plate.
ChasingAimee
I have four left in the fridge (;
Parthenon19
If they put a dozen deviled eggs on the table, you’d be complaining that one person should not eat that much.
Woodturner360
Not to mention there’s a wine glass. SMH — who needs a glass?
ChasingAimee
Right!? Lmfao I should've ate the rest from the pans, too. But I was trying to treat myself...
AlcoholicsAnonymousBYO
Nothing wrong with treats. Or white wine with red meat - rebels unite!!
ChasingAimee
Yes! Thanks for supporting your troops!!
