Mom and Apple Pie
Well, that was the very model of a modern traditional Thanksgiving dinner. The turkey was glazed with a really nice pomegranate and sage sauce, and my cousin brought bourbon sweet potatoes. We went through ten pounds of mashed potatoes, two heads of broccoli, half the cranberry mold, and 1.5 of three pies.
Conversation was lively. Grandma had some great zingers. She's pretty sharp for 98 years old. They think she can come home from rehab in three weeks, when she's a bit stronger than she was when she had the fall. I was impressed when she first came in the door, and seemed so energetic, even if she's not walking. Physio's done good things for her.
My cousin's gotten a black chow, who is really sweet, even if his face has a distinctly scary ursine appearance.
It's pouring down rain, and I'm happy to have a warm place to sleep tonight.
Yes, I wish I were going home tomorrow.
