| Thanksgiving pumpkins (real and ceramic): a holiday decoration here at the home of Evelyn and Tom where we are visiting for the holiday. |
 |
| Preparations: Miriam making cranberry sauce. I’m thankful to be with family on this holiday. |
 |
| Mac and cheese step 1: a white sauce enriched with egg yolks. The macaroni part of the dish will be made today, while the topping will be made at the last minute to keep it crisp. |
 |
| Bread for stuffing and candied pecans for garnish for another dish. |
Last minute trip to the supermarket
 |
| Wednesday morning: turkeys waiting for buyers. The store was not yet crowded. Turkey is not on our menu for tomorrow. We were at the store for just a few more items. |
 |
| When I think about what Americans have to be thankful for, our abundant supplies of food are a major reason why we should be grateful. I am also thinking of families who need help. And victims of many misfortunes, wars, and disasters throughout the world. |
At the lake
I’m thankful for our beautiful country. On Wednesday afternoon we took a walk
around Burke Lake near Fairfax where we are spending the holiday.
