Thanksgiving 2010

We had a pretty low-key Thanksgiving celebration this year. Just some good friends, good food and a lot of desserts.

The original plan was to just have chicken because turkeys are super expensive here, but Celeste came through with a very fresh (like on Tuesday it was alive and Wednesday it was in my fridge) and reasonably priced turkey.


Turkey Before.


Turkey After.
Please note that I had very little to do with the transformation of the turkey besides being the only one with an oven and a refrigerator that was big enough to house the turkey.


Turkey Cutting.


We all brought a few of our favorite things.


Angela wowed us with her desserts.


We had cherry pie, apple pie and her very famous pumpkin cookies.


We ate a lot.


Had time to talk to our friends.


Made a turkey.


Made some new friends.


Took a group picture.


And another group picture.


And, at last, we took a good group picture.

Happy Thanksgiving!

(note to pregnant friends: hosting Thanksgiving while almost 9 month pregnant will leave you a bit sore, but very thankful for friend that will wash your dishes for you)
