On Saturday we had a breakfast of sausage and stuff (don’t know where those photos went) from Sam while watching The Game. This was probably the first time I’ve watched The Game with my parents since 1998.
After The Game I gave them a short tour of our complex while Sam was putting the finishing touches on lunch.
Lunch was a “traditional Long family Thanksgiving” meal. We don’t like turkey that much so mom started making stuffed cornish hens a long time ago instead. Sam doesn’t like turkey any more than we do, so she was happy to experiment. I think her first hens came out great.
And her (not first?) mashed potatoes were good too.
After eating we attempted to burn it off by hiking up to Amir’s garden in Griffith Park.
Afterwards we went to the Americana to try and find the Microsoft store so dad could check out the Surface tablets. All the directions lead us to an alley beside the mall since the store was actually a “pop up” (i.e. large kiosk) in the OLD mall – thus having no real address inside or out of the building. Once we finally found it dad took one look and said “too small” and it was time to go. We called Micelli’s to get reservations, but they said it would be over an hour wait, so we decided to just go home and eat ice cream, as we had eaten a really large late lunch anyway after The Game.
All the photos from the entire trip can be found here.
