Thank goodness for Thanksgiving!
... or as I said many times by the end of the day, "urp."
Wow, there was a lot of food. Turkey, Ham, asparagus, spinach salad, sweet potatoes, stuffing, and "geoff-a-roni." and rolls. and wine. and don't forget the not-quite-seven-layer dip that we had for an appetizer. Like I said, "urp." And that's not counting the desserts!!
Teri's brother Tom made spinach salad. Tutu made asparagus and stuffing. Geoff made his own version of Rice-a-Roni, and really yummy candied sweet potatoes. and three kinds of gelato. (much of the early time was spent messing with the gelato machine and explaining what 'zabaglione' was.) We ate outdoors in the sunny 70 degree weather (why didn't I remember from last year that black jeans are not good for sitting in the sun?!). Casey and Samantha had their own little side table, and Sam actually tried some of the Thanksgiving food. The girls seem to have had a good time, and the grownups ended the evening watching "Chad Vader" on YouTube. If you are a Star Wars fan, Go watch. There are multiple episodes.
In addition to the gelato, we had Dawn's apple pie, Geoff's pumpkin cheesecake, and Teri's pumpkin delight. Then we all sat around in our food comas for a while, before everyone started to drift homeward.
