Giving Thanks

We had Ani and James, and Ani's 10 year old niece Ava over for Thanksgiving. Lindsay was far too busy with her twenty-seven or so papers so cooking fell to me, which is just the way I like it. We had turkey breast, which was the size of a rump roast and took about three times longer than we expected but was perfect, bourbon sweet potatoes, french beans cooked with bacon, mashed potatoes, stuffing (although there was nothing to stuf it into so I suppose it was "dressing"), cranberry relish by Ani, pumpkin cheesecake and gingerbread that Lindsay made. Bourbon for drinking supplied by Ani and James.

Games were played, food consumed, fun had. We are thankful for friends and the opportunity to spend time with them.
