Thanksgiving morning - these are my white cheddar and sage mashed potatoes ...
And these are my blue cheese and chive mashed potatoes ...
Checklist? Both white potato dishes, mashed sweet potatoes, green beans, hot spinach dip, crackers, bakery-bought apple pie, and the all important camera bag ... packed up the car around 11:00 and headed over to my father-in-law's house ...
With 3 sons and their widower father, plus the hometown team (Go Pats!) in the 1:00 Thanksgiving Day game, you don't even need to ask how much of a role football played in the day ...
Meantime, the turkey was baking beautifully, courtesy of my sister-in-law ...
And at last, it was time to feast ...
Followed by our traditional sunset walk ...
Followed by another feast ... this is my other sister-in-law's signature dessert - a pumpkin cheesecake with ginger snap crust ... to die for ...
As darkness fell, so did our triptophan-induced food comas ... another year behind us, another year of happy memories right inside this window ...
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
