Last packet, there were a couple messages from you dated 15Nov...
apparently they got caught somewhere in the process.  I'm a couple of
days behind again, of course, so you get both replies in the same
reply packet...  (G)

I went to my sister's... she did pretty much all of the cooking.  She
had me set the breads out on a plate... and supply the milk, as she had
used up her supply in cooking already. 

Turkey (white and dark), stuffing from the bird, gravy from scratch, yam
souffle, green bean casserole (traditional style), cranberry sauce (both
whole berry and jelly), winter squash, stir-fried mixed veggies (with
carrots, brussel sprouts, mushrooms, onions, asparagus, maybe more),
mashed white potatoes, lemon bread, date-nut bread... and apple, pecan,
pumpkin, and butterscotch pies with fresh whipped cream for dessert,
which we had a few hours later.   All cooked from scratch...   Milk,
cranberry juice and apple cider were available to drink.  A right proper
feast, indeed.  :)  (And, for those who have taken note of my apple
allergy, I carefully avoided ingesting anything that had apple within.)
