Me, Kathy S, Debby, Tim, and Tom
The menu: turkey and dressing, cranberry sauce, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, corn, rolls.
Later, The Brides arrived with a thermos of freshly brewed coffee to share in our coconut cake, pumpkin pie, and peach pie, along with a snack tray prepared by my sister with cheeses, salami, pepperoni, crackers, and dip.
To keep Kathy and Debby from arguing over who got to do the rest of the dishes, for dessert, we broke out the special paper plates Lynne gave me with my Christmas loot last year, which Lindsey displays here:
I’m not sure if Rhonda is going after peach pie or Bella with her fork.
I have so much to be grateful for–a house full of family and friends, hilarious dogs (Margot managed to get at part of the turkey after dinner), and good wishes from other family and friends throughout the world. It’s a good life.
It looks like you had a good time with good friends and good food. A bit belated – but Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks very much!
I know who taught you how to cook that turkey, looked like Grandmother Dear’s table!
There wasn’t nearly enough food weighing it down to be her table, but we didn’t have the hordes who used to be at their house on Thanksgiving, so it evened out.
It cracks me up that we must take a photo every year of the table–because she always did.
