Happy Thanksgiving Day


A day to reflect on the things to be thankful for, the first Thanksgiving Day was actually celebrated when the pilgrims first set foot in America, and gathered the natives for dinner.

My mom cooked this 23-lb turkey for 10 hours. I made buttermilk mashed potatoes with chives from scratch. After filling ourselves up with turkey, (we kinda missed lechon!), Magu played 2 songs on his beginner violin.

I think this will be a nice tradition to start! Only missing were Miguel, Mikko, Sylvia, Chiara, and Gaby. Maybe next year, we can all be together. And maybe with dad in 2008, when he visits us!
