Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a beautiful and temperate day in Naperville that rolled along in lovely fashion. Blair, Julie, Eden, and Brigham all safely arrived; Evan was somewhere serving in Chicago; and the rest of us were here at home. We dressed in our Black & White attire and headed to Aurora to a local church making-do as a food shelf for the day. Our role, as you can tell by the attire, was to serve food and accommodate, assist and chat with patrons who came in for their Thanksgiving meal. Another new tradition to start here in Chicago land. It was nothing spectacular but it was great to participate in and enjoy serving others for a few hours.

The Feast was grand.

As usual Rindy made a spectacular, flavorful, delightsome repas. The basic titles might be expected but the outcomes were far from normal as each had a taste of its own. My favorite was the new stuffing recipe. A home-made recipe of: sausage, garlic, apricots, mushrooms, pecans,onions, nutmeg, cinnamon, bread, celery, and all your basics. It was the best. (Even made for Sunday breakfast left-overs for Julie and Eden.) The sweet-potato boats were a close second
