thanksgiving

This is the first Thanksgiving we have spent in DC in five years.  In 2007 we were in Brazil for the honeymoon, in 2008 we went to Uncle Perry's in New Jersey, in the 2009 we were at Maya and Tyson's wedding in Cabo, and last year we were with my family in Zihuantanejo.  I enjoy going elsewhere, but it was nice to be at home for Thanksgiving this year.

It was just the two of us, so Lelaine only made about ten pounds of food.  Instead of a full turkey she went and bought a turkey tenderloin and rolled/stuffed it with...stuffing.  It was really good.  Good enough that for now on I'm fine if we forgo the entire bird and just do the tenderloin.  She also made mashed potatoes, more stuffing, gravy, cranberries, asparagus, and pumpkin chiffon pie for dessert.

Everything was great, and I had nothing to do with it, other than to clean up afterwards.  The best part about it only being the two of us is that we have a lot of leftovers.
