John and Erin hosted Thanksgiving this year, and the spread was tremendous. There were cheeses and veggies to munch on as the house warmed with the smells of tradition.
There were enough people that the living room furniture had been banished to the corners, and an "L" shaped table filled the entire space.
It's good to have friends.
Especially on the holidays when you're so far away from your family - amen for urban family.
Sam carved the turkey. Please note - there was also mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, green beans, brussel sprouts, salad, wild rice, french onion casserole, rolls, mac and cheese and 3 different types of stuffing.
And a smoked pork butt, carved by Arthur.
After dessert (chocolate chip pie, chocolate-maple pecan pie and apple crisp), we played Apples to Apples because we are dorks and the wine flowed freely. It made not being able to be home, a lot easier to swallow, especially since we really could not have swallowed another thing.
