Thanksgiving Weekend

Pecan/Chocolate Pie (Emeril) - Crust broke during transport :-(


Appetizers - after we attacked them...deviled eggs (Mom's recipe, and I got to use my new "filling gun"), crab stuffed mushrooms (Paula Deen), and prosciutto wrapped figs, stuffed with goat cheese and drizzled with honey hot out of the oven. (Sandra Lee)
BTW - note my new "white platter" - I have been looking for a white platter for quite some time, found this perfect dish at a silent action! - Late in the day the turkey was served on this dish. :-)


Rock Band! Drums are harder than they look...


WII Bowling - Go Mary



Note the form, the style... :-)

We hope that you all had an excellent weekend and an enjoyable Thanksgiving holiday. Mary and I spent the day with friends in Anchorage. The company and food were both excellent. While we missed family and friends across the "lower 48," we had a happy day.
We did see two movies this weekend - Twilight (Mary and I both read the book), movie is good, true to the story but I thought it left out key details in the story telling due to time constraints. We also saw - Bolt...destined to be a classic...ok, maybe not, but it was cute! The hamster was too funny.

We hope you all know this...but it always is worth repeating - Mary and I are truly thankful for the wonderful people (family and friends) across the country who enrich our lives on a daily basis! Our lives would be very different without each of you.

Enjoy the pictures. Take care - and Happy Holidays!

Three weeks until we are in San Diego!
