Sofia's First Thanksgiving

We enjoyed our first Thanksgiving with Sofia and had an outstanding meal. Aunt Shirley and Uncle Steve cooked a moist and delicious turkey (cut in half which was a new method), excellent stuffing, mashed potatoes, brussel sprouts, and two different types of cranberry compotes. Mom (Grandma to Sofia) cooked the root vegetables, an excellent tomato tart, and made yummy ginger snaps for dessert. CK cooked his pecan pie (with Georgia pecans) and I made the sweet potatoes. It was all delicious and one of our best Thanksgiving meals (although I think I say that every year!). It was a very warm 71 degrees for most of the day, so we enjoyed the appetizers sitting outside! Sofia enjoyed visiting with everyone and meeting my niece Melissa and her husband Fabian, who flew in from California for Thanksgiving and a few quick days of sightseeing.

The table is all set!
