Another Holiday
We enjoyed our "no frills" Thanksgiving dinner...turkey, dressing, gravy, cranberries, pumpkin pie and huge blobs of fresh whipped cream. I've carried my KitchenAid mixer for 2.5 years just to whip cream 3 times. I could save a lot of weight if I gave up that luxury! It's quite a production to bring this feast to the table when I only have 2 feet of counter space. But with help from my assistant chef we pulled it off.
Our neighbors all had friends in for afternoon feasts and by 7 pm the whole party was over. We listened to our music, watched Forever Young with Mel Gibson and had champagne and wine to accompany our feast. We had to maintain a certain level of "white noise sound barrier" to over come the boisterous crowds around us!
Now, on the day after, it's nearly noon and all we've had is grapefruit and coffee...still full from yesterday.
