Thanksgiving feast with Mom Ryan, Patrick, Sam, Fletcher, and Stanley. Patrick's menu: pumpkin and sage soup; Auvergne greens salad with Cantal cheese, smoked ham, and walnuts; garlic asiago dinner rolls; lemon and herb stuffing; Brazilian-spiced roasted turkey breasts; sweet corn pudding; chocolate-pecan pie with bourbon and cocoa nibs; pomegranate and tangerine Italian soda; Lagunitas Brown Shugga’ Ale; cranberry iced tea. The upstairs neighbors had visitors which included two dogs Missy and Charlie with whom we spent a few minutes playing in the back yard. Our meal went well. We started at noon and everyone had left by 2:30 PM. Rested. Scanned, edited, and uploaded photos to Flickr. Dinner at home with Patrick: leftover-turkey sandwiches, leftover salad, Lagunitas Brown Shugga’ Ale. Watched videos on YouTube. Watched Up on Netflix DVD with Patrick.
