We had a really awesome Thanksgiving; even though both Dave & I were sick. My voice was absolutely zapped so I sounded like Minnie Mouse all day. My brother-in-law, sister-in-law and their baby were also sick, but none of us any worse than a nasty cough.

Dave’s mom made a great feast for the seven of us present. We had a marvelous turkey, chestnut & sausage stuffing, kale, butternut squash, creamed onions, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, biscuits, gravy, ambrosia, pumpkin pie and apple pie. And we brought home some great leftovers too.

After dinner we took a drive down to New Haven to drop our sister-in-law off so she could travel back home for work today. I felt sorry for her having to work the day after Thanksgiving, bummer. When we got back, we had dessert and came home because by then our colds had gotten the better of us.

Today we are doing some much needed household & yard projects. Dave got his new snow blower delivered this morning. It is poised in the garage awaiting a great snowfall.
