Beverly came around noon with nice flowers for my mom. It was then that my weakness was exposed for all the world to see. We went to Target and found a vase to put the flowers in. Yaw and Justin rolled in before 4pm.
And then – the feast (that mom, almost exclusively mom, had slaved over for days in my kitchen) was on!
The spread was thus: (all completely manufactured from scratch – except the drinks)
Individual stuffed Cornish Hens
Green bean casserole
cream corn casserole
fresh cranberry sauce
stuffing
gravy
mashed potatoes
Pumpkin PIe
Peach Derazno
White Zinfandel
Yellow Tail Sheraz
From my point of view
From my counter’s point of view (no photoshopping required…and where did Justin go?)
After the massive feast those with room in their bellies tried the pumpkin pie with cool whip. Justin prepared his projector and we watched Star Wars The Phantom Menace on my living room wall.
