Happy Thanksgiving!
Well other than the untimeliness of some - it's ok, we're all filipinos - this year's Thanksgiving went really well. Nothing that made it on to this year's Thanksgiving table was offensive. In fact, it wouldn't be hyperbole to say that all the food was pretty damn good. Mike's candied yams were nice and sweet. Melanie's cheesy mac and EJ's mashed potatoes were gobbled - pun intended - up quickly. Mehran's enchilada casserole were good enough to have been ordered up again by my mom. Oliver's guacamole recipe was asked for. There's no more of Sara's fruit salad. Jason's Fayes's ham was moist and full of flavor. Annette's pansit didn't disappoint the filipinos. Vanessa's and Lindsey's pies tasted better than what anyone else in this family could bake. And lastly, I didn't burn the house down when cooking the turkey. It all made for a very successful Thanksgiving.
Thank you all for cooking! And again, happy Thanksgiving!
This is giving thanks for a day gone well enough to merit note. It was the finishline for the generation that prepared and served food for better than a quarter of a century. Finally, the moms were able to enjoy more than ever Thanksgiving.
Yes, it was a very monumental Thanksgiving to say the least. I'm glad it was enjoyable for the titas and titos. I hope this doesn't mean they'll never cook again, but I'm sure we can all look forward to tastier future family gatherings.
So Rock Band... we should have a family performance for the upcoming reunion. Let's decide or vote the top 4 cousins for the band (we might want alternates for back up)
How about a new lead singer??
Austin gets an A+ for performance... D for vocal skills hahaha
