Happy Thanksgiving!


We celebrated Thanksgiving on Friday with colleagues in another town and complete with all the trimmings: turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, rolls, apple butter, corn, cranberry sauce (!!), sweet potatoes (made with butternut squash) and a wonderful harvest salad. Dessert included pumpkin pie, apple crisp, brownies, berry pie, chocolate cookies and pecan pie. I guess from the menu you'd never guess we were in the Balkans!

We had a wonderful time together, sharing some of the things for which we are thankful, lots of laughs, games and so much more. The next day we enjoyed a breakfast of french toast and sausage and then took a hike up the mountain until the rain turned us around. Back at the house the guys played a game of chess while we gals watched (and sang to) the "Sound of Music."

All in all it was a great holiday weekend spent with a wonderful group of people!

You had cranberry sauce? I'm thinking about defecting to CMA!
