Our Thanksgiving was very nice, as Lizzie wrote, Jeff had a long drive to get to La Mirada from San Diego, but he finally made it, it must have been very tiresome but he was happy to be with all of us and cooked some really delicious rib eye steaks and a yummy green bean casserole. We are not traditionalists when it comes to Thanksgiving, I am sure the girls still remember the day we had to make do with Chinese food ;)
Give me a good steak for a turkey any time! we also had some appetizers, the spinach dip and deviled eggs were especially good, also cheese, brie and cheddar. Of course some nice Cava to drink. Even Marvin had a few sips of the bubbly.
Jeff did a great job making the casserole and grilling the steaks, the steaks were enormous, and juicy and tender, yum!
Here's a picture of dessert, chocolate meringue pie, and profiteroles with strawberries. We all had a nice talk after dinner discussing family events and music and movies. Jeff left shortly after and Lizzie decided to stay until the morning.
It was a lovely Fall day, they were forecasting rain but we had sunshine and mild weather. Got to love California!
I had a little too much Cava, and after Jeff left I took a nap. Matter of fact I just woke up :)
My friends Norbert, Lolin and Jennifer called us to wish us a Happy Thanksgiving. We missed our family from Utah, but after reading Sandy's blog it seems they had a nice time as well.
We really have a lot to be thankful for. Love you all!
