Thanksgiving 2009

plateOfFood_smgobbleGobble2009

I was lucky enough to have my mom and stepdad come to NY for Thanksgiving this year. In addition, several of our friends were able to come over for dinner/drinks/dessert that night as well (Geoff, Bridget, and Patrice). It was a really great year! The food was A-mazing, and the whole atmosphere was relaxed and fun.

So, enough with the chit-chat. I know you’re all DYING to know...what did we EAT? Well, I’ll tell you. Meats? Honey baked ham and oven-roasted turkey (that we baked ourselves). Sides? *takes deep breath* Deviled eggs, collard greens, asparagus, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, brussel sprouts, sliced tomatoes, chicken stuffing, and rolls. And for dessert? Apple and pumpkin pies - a la mode, of course.

We all had a really great time, and my mom even commented that it was one of her favorite Thanksgivings EVER! And I’d have to agree.
