Our Thanksgiving

It must be Thanksgiving weekend because I just ate a turkey sandwich for breakfast.

We spent the holiday with our friends Chris and Colleen.  Chris (or Master Chef Chris as we've decided to call him) cooked an amazing meal.  We had a perfectly moist turkey with apple cranberry stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and homemade cranberry sauce.


J and I brought Green Bean Salad with Walnuts, Fennel, and Goat Cheese.  This is a new recipe for us, but it turned out being really good.  It's a great alternative to mushy green bean casserole which grosses me out.

As if that wasn't enough deliciousness for one day, dessert consisted of chocolate silk pie, pumpkin pie, and apple pie, along with homemade butter pecan and cinnamon ice creams.  (Are you drooling yet?)

After dinner and dessert, we all fell into a food coma.  I mean, we all watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.  "Are you serious, Clark?"

Luckily after all that eating, we were able to burn calories while playing with the cutest little guy!
