Yesterday was wonderful! We had our traditional Thanksgiving dinner at my parents' house and everyone was assigned to bring something. I was assigned rolls and I actually made them (Rhodes Bake and Serve) and they turned out great (I have burned them before). We had turkey and ham, cheesy potatoes, stuffing, the aforementioned rolls, pomegranate salad (a tradition), and a relish tray. Everything tasted great!
After dinner we all took naps for a few hours and then we reconvened for a ruthless game of shanghai rummy! Everyone was assigned to bring a treat (we will play this game every night over the break). I made caramel corn and we also had fudge, caramels, my Grandma Johnson's traditional scones, and, of course, pie! Sean is modeling the whipped cream from the pie!
Marilyn is modeling the caramels.
This game is absolutely crazy! Tashena won the last game we played so we were all gunning for her and she was not happy!
It is kill or be killed, Tashena! I actually won but I know that everyone will be gunning for me when we play again! It was so much fun to spend the day with my family! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving as well!
