We had Thanksgiving here again this year so we spent the week getting the house in order. I guess it doesn’t hurt to entertain occasionally–it keeps the house clean anyway.
My parents and grandmother and Brian’s parents were in attendance today (besides the three of us, of course). It was nice to be able to spend a holiday with both families–this was the first time for that. Hopefully, it won’t be the last.
Thanksgiving is an interesting holiday in that there are certain things that are expected for dinner. That definitely makes the menu planning easier. And, actually, most of it is fairly easy to prepare, so it wasn’t too much work until the last hour, when it was crunch time, and everything had to be ready at once. We managed, albeit 30 minutes later than I had planned, but everything turned out just fine.
