out of the habit

I haven't been journaling/blogging for a few days and I find I'm a bit out of the habit. Our Thanksgiving was lovely - Leigh & Alex and Gabrielle and Charles Henry came and stayed the night. Erick and his girlfriend Amber came (and Erick did a lot of the cooking). Tyler came and brought Green Bean Casserole. It was a great time and everything was delicious. It made a huge difference having Erick there to do most of the cooking. I did all my stuff on Tuesday and Wednesday (cranberry sauce, cheesecake, cornbread and dry ingredients for dressing, fruit salad, brining) and he was really on the spot Thursday (he made brussel sprouts with pancetta, creamed corn, mashed potatoes, a lovely salad and a fabulous banana/butterscotch dessert).

It is always so nice to see my nephews, and it just makes me even more excited for Christmas!
