So as you know from my last entry, Thanksgiving this year was a big, cooperative event. What follows is a photo entry of the action and dishes. I don't have all of the recipes, but will follow this post with 2-3 of them. If there's a specific recipe you'd like, please post a comment and I'll be sure to acquire it for you.

"Mommies 2" - my host had invited me to join her mother, her mother's best friend, her daughter, and others. The two daughters--one of them being my friend and host--call their mothers who are best friends "mommies squared" to indicate the amplification when they're around each other.
