With everyone swapped around, Thanksgiving often lasted only a few hours longer before everyone would depart. This time gave everyone a chance to adjust to their bodies but also enjoy dessert which was always a fun experience. Most of the time, you’d forget whose body you were in and go to enjoy your own personal favorite dessert just to discover it doesn’t taste as good or even potentially horrible. Carly perhaps got hit the hardest by this phenomenon this year as getting placed into her father’s body, she expected she’d enjoy the same sweet desserts she often enjoyed but now found them way too sweet.
“Mommy, these taste yucky,” the 9 year old said from her father’s body, sounding a bit strange as she said it. Amanda couldn’t help but laugh a little as she walked over in Kurt’s body.
“That’s because daddy doesn’t like those cookies,” Amanda said to her daughter who still was having a bit of trouble adjusting to her new size. Not trusting her to operate a knife, Amanda reached over and sliced a piece of apple pie for her. “Here, try this. And let me get you some coffee.” Those two were always Max’s favorite combination and were sure to be a big hit with Carly.
The night eventually started to wrap up as everyone prepared to leave. Max and Amanda stayed back and walked the family out as it was always a bit strange watching their own bodies walk away, especially with the entire family with them. The two waved goodbye to everyone as they all made their way over to the car. Usually, Max would be the one to drive but not trusting Carly to operate a car, Elma took control and drove the family home.
Arriving back at home, everyone filed into the house and immediately went their own ways. This was typically what would happen after the Body Exchange as it was late and most either wanted to get ready for bed or explore their new forms. This resulted in everyone going to their new bodies’ bedrooms.
