Thanksgiving tradition



The setting: Shawn, Stacey, and Kyla's house.
The menu: By Bruce: The turkey brined and roasted, dressing with sausage
By Stacey: Potatoes mashed with the skins on, steamed broccoli, chocolate bunt cake
By Bernice: Cranberry relish, candied sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie
By Bonnie: corn soufflé, jell0 salad
This is the menu to the best of my recollection. For me it was very relaxing, since I could cook ahead and just bring three things. Shawn always has the privilege of carving the turkey. It was a bit of a challenge this year.

Stacey's sister Stef and fiancée, Jeff also joined us. (Their wedding will be in January in Phoenix. Stay tuned for the report on that) The picture shows Stef and Jeff with Shawn, Stacey and Kyla. Note what is on the TV.

Football! I'm shocked. Why not motorcycle racing?

woah, was it just the cool kid thing to do to brine this year? Looks like it was a winning strategy at least!

Mike, it was football because it was Shawn's TV, not his father's.
