November 27, 2014 – Thanksgiving

John has come down with a bad cold and I have banned him from the kitchen. Sarah and I will man all the stations today. It is very helpful that everyone is bringing something. Our Thanksgiving dinner consists of Autumn soup (Sarah), deconstucted turkey with stuffed thighs (M & J), stuffing (Mary), gravy (John), chipotle sweet potatoes (Sarah), mashed potatoes (Jonathan), Brussels sprouts (Mary), roasted creamed cipollini onions (Mary), green beans (Jonathan), cranberry relish (Ryan), crescent rolls (Leigh, Nathan and Sam) and three pies for dessert made by Rose. The pies are cranberry-apple, mincemeat, and pumpkin.

Dinner is delicious and everyone leaves full and happy. Now there’s just the billions of dishes and glasses to clean up.
