there is something really beautiful about cooking and planning and preparing thankgsiving.
granted, this is a small dinner this year, just me, si and blake, with friends dropping in during the day, but it makes it easier for me, non cook, to tackle a old fashioned, made from scratch dinner. so the pies are done, some of the bread, the turkey prepped and we will potter around tomorrow fixing, cooking, chopping, marinating, grilling and baking.
i do like this holiday, with the emphasis(rare in this culture) on just hanging out and sharing a meal, spending time, etc. with people you dig.
my bamboo plant has grown so much since last xmas. we must take pictures of it, when you see it every day, you dont realize how much growth there is. hmmm. like other things in life, i suspect.
