Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Hope you are enjoying your Black Friday deals.
We had a good day, but it was very different. We truly missed all of our family and friends in the States.
We had some celebrations in the classrooms, and then had a small dinner here. We cooked a chicken, skipping the turkey. The UK is big on sides for dinners, so without more than a few touches on the microwave, we had mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and creamed spinach. Sorely missed were the creamed onions, stuffing, scalloped corn, good sweet potatoes... etc, etc. But I didn't miss washing all the Turkey Day dishes!
