Thanksgiving Thankfullness
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We did here in the Wescott house. Normally, Michele and I get up early and start cooking together, but since this year we didn't know when she'd be home, we planned a simpler meal. I slept in, then, around 11, made the pie and cranberry sauce. At that point I didn't really know what else to do. Everything else that was planned took an hour or less to make and Michele wasn't going to be home until 5 or 6, so I took a few hour break. . .and then, around 4, I worked like crazy to make everything else - pretty poor planning on my part! It all turned out great, though - even though at one point I had to leave everything cooking away in the oven to go get Michele from a truckstop because she couldn't get her hitch lock working so couldn't drop her trailer and bring the tractor home (long confusing story). Dinner was perfect, indeed! And our annual day-after-Thanksgiving 6am trip to Joann's was even better because it was Michele's idea - I was willing to forego it this year, but she claimed she was excited about it and wanted to go with me! All in all, it was a wonderful two days and I hope yours was just as great!

ReplyDeleteHappy thanks giving!! We don`t celebrate it here in Norway!! Unfortunately!! But I can sing a song for you!! I`m turky one and two, I`m turky one and two. How do you do, how do you do!! - Then I don`t remember more.... My kids went to an american school when we lived i Greese 10 years ago. So I have made the big meal 2-3 times...We eat turky in Christmas time. Have a nice week-end!! AnneK:-)

ReplyDeleteWeren't the prices at JoAnn's great yesterday? Too bad they don't last longer than three days!
