This year we had a fairly low-key Thanksgiving. I really enjoyed spending time in the kitchen, preparing everything for the big meal. I bought our usual Marie Callendar's pies, but basically everything else was homemade -- not bad for doing everything ourselves! This year we even brined our turkey! I'm not sure that I did it entirely right, because I didn't really notice a difference, but it was fun to try.
We had one guy from church join us -- Brother French. The boys loved having him here . . . probably had something to do with his iPad! They also liked calling him French Fry :)
I have to admit I was sad that we didn't spend the holiday with our extended family, but it was great to have a delicious meal and a relaxing afternoon!
