Thanksgiving was great this year. We were not sure we were even going to be in town together, but it all got pulled together at the last minute. Kelly came mid-morning, a few guests arrived a little later. A few more arrived after that. One arrived even after dinner to spend the night. It was small impromptu and wonderful. Of course we ate too much. Kelly started it off with a cheese board and lox, crackers and cream cheese. Aaron L. made and brought a butter nut squash pie with coconut milk whipped topping (stunningly good). I cooked the (smallish) turkey and overruled Mom when she told me I needed to leave it in the oven for another 30-60 minutes–it was the best turkey we ever had. We set the table for eight and ate and ate and ate. Cannot wait until next year.
