We started out the day by sleeping in, a rare treat these days. Then, after getting some things packed up, it was off to my parents' house for the traditional thanksgiving festivities. Dad took care of the turkey as usual, this time it was smoked in the barbecue, yum!
My mom and I took care of the rest of the preparations while Bob packed up his tools and supplies in the garage. We had garlic herb rolls which called for a whopping fourteen cloves of garlic, homemade cranberry sauce, candied yams, Shamberg stuffing (family recipe), an apple and sweet potato gratin, an apple-pumpkin galette, and pumpkin cheesecake. They were all delicious. There was also a broccoli/cranberry/walnut salad, but it was decidedly not delicious.
All in all it was a nice day, and I got some crafting done for a few Christmas presents as well (post to follow!). One week until the big move, wish us luck!
