Thanksgiving Left-overs

It was a wonderful day. Four vehicles arrived from various Chicagoland and southern Wisconsin locales. Ten adults, a happy two year old boy and his somewhat sleepy 10 week old sister, combined a total of two grandma's, four mothers, three fathers, five sons and four daughters, all together for a grateful Thanksgiving dinner on a blustery cold Chicagoland day. A parade, a few football games, several new children's books, a lead-free toy or two, far too many snacks, and loads of conversation contributed to successful and certainly not fat-free holiday. Photo sessions for the upcoming holiday card were completed and new bottles of wine and Pelligreno were opened and consumed. After two days of preparation, the linens are again clean and put away, the china, crystal and silver has been carefully washed and returned to the china cabinet for another month of rest until late December when a similar group will reconvene for another holiday.
