Thanksgiving dinner...

Thanksgiving dinner ... was a wonderful thing!  Jim and Michelle had us, Michelle's sister and her husband, and a family friend join them for dinner.  They cooked a mostly traditional meal: brined roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, dinner rolls, green beans, sweet potatoes with cinnamon and nuts, cranberry sauce with pomegranate, and pumpkin or cherry pie for dessert.  We took some leftovers home with us, and we'll enjoy them a little later today.  The food was all great, and there was plenty of it.  The wine flowed freely as well :).  There was much good cheer, friendly conversation, and story telling.  A most pleasant evening, with a group of most pleasant companions...
