Think I’ll be a shadybrook gal now

I feel like a twenty-one pound turkey.

Dinner was really fun and I'm really full - The Smoke House. I had the turkey dinner and a shrimp cocktail - so a little starter salad, turkey and stuffing, and yams - but I didn't eat those. Some garlic cheese bread. I had no room for dessert and Robert didn't want any, so I now have one slice each of apple and pumpkin pie in the fridge for tomorrow.

Have I mentioned that I'm full.

bk · « **Reply #214 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:55:58 PM »

Because I am.

bk · « **Reply #215 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:56:06 PM »

Full.

bk · « **Reply #216 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:56:20 PM »

And I think we've had quite enough of page eight.

bk · « **Reply #217 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:56:26 PM »

Quite enough.

Hopefully, George will be by to regale us with tales of his Thanksgiving.

I, of course, forgot to take photographs.

bk · « **Reply #220 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:57:13 PM »

I ate when that happens.

bk · « **Reply #221 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:57:19 PM »

And it happened.

bk · « **Reply #222 on:** November 24, 2022, 10:57:25 PM »

And I hated it.

And I didn’t even notice

Congrats, Vixmom! Hopefully, someone was able to capture the moment...or fairly close to it.

Regale us.

bk · « **Reply #225 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:33:55 PM »

We need regaling.

bk · « **Reply #226 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:34:04 PM »

We haven't had enough regaling.

bk · « **Reply #227 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:34:15 PM »

Maybe I should write some damn notes.

bk · « **Reply #228 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:34:38 PM »

And maybe by the time I'm done, we'll be off this damn Geraldine Page.

Well, I went to my my sister's around 1:00 because she needed some milk for a white sauce that she wanted to make.

George · « **Reply #231 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:39:35 PM »

I also brought over some sodas that I had and was planning on bringing, so I did.

George · « **Reply #232 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:40:55 PM »

I helped with some things that she needed help with, then around 2:45, I went to my mom's to help her bring the food that she had made to my sister's.

George · « **Reply #233 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:48:09 PM »

Most people were going to show up around 4:00, so there was plenty of time.

George · « **Reply #234 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:49:48 PM »

I don't really like turkey, and since my mom had some frozen meatballs, I grabbed those for me.

George · « **Reply #235 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:52:59 PM »

We had various pre-meal snacky bits, turkey, ham, meatballs, corn pudding, stuffing that was cooked in the turkey, stuffing that was cooked in the oven but not in the turkey, a quinoa salad, mashed potatoes, Hawaiian King rolls, a cake, a peach pie and a pumpkin pie, as well as other assorted unremembered food stuffs.

George · « **Reply #236 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:54:01 PM »

A good time and lot of food was had by all!

George · « **Reply #237 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:57:43 PM »

Two of my mom's friends, and a former co-worker of my sister's boyfriend joined us, so we had eight at the table.

George · « **Reply #238 on:** November 24, 2022, 11:59:43 PM »

There was also Tillamook vanilla bean ice cream for desserts a la mode, or one could've just had the ice cream on its own, which was my choice.

Delish...simple, but elegant.
