Thanksgiving 2019 was a blast! Here are some of the highlights:
- Ben baked his first cake
- Your Mom made chocolate fudge & artichoke dip
- Emma made chocolate chip cookies
- Grammy was busy. She cooked a turkey + a turkey breast (so we’d have enough leftovers for follow-on turkey sandwiches) plus her famous mashed potatoes, lots of gravy and fantastic sausage stuffing. The highlight for me was her incredible apple pie which I ate for several more days until not a single crumb remained.
- Jack drew a new picture and wrote a Thanksgiving thank you note. He also got ‘whipped;” so did Molly!
- Your Dad & Ben put all my deck furniture away (my shoulder is still not up for that kind of work!) – thanks Guys!
- You ran around outside like wild banshees, ate lots of candy, played the game of Life and did your usual crazy stuff upstairs.
- We went around the table and said what we were thankful for (so much); your Dad debuted his 2019 Top 10 list (nicely done)
- Ben got a man bun and Emma grew a supersized belly with a tiny Ken doll attached. Weird yes, but funny.
- We all filled our bellies with delightful food. We’re so lucky to have each other, a roof over our heads, food to eat and financial security. So many people don’t have any of this! We must always remember this and give back to make the world a better place.
