Today was officially Thanksgiving Day. Last Sunday we celebrated our Thanksgiving with a potluck dinner at our church.
Potluck dinners are an interesting tradition where people bring their favorite dish to share. There was of course turkey and people brought several other dishes to eat along with that.
One of the things I miss about being away from home is this kind of meal. We can have turkey, we can have dressing and even cranberry sauce, but it isn’t the same as fixing it at your house, gathering your family together and then sharing that meal, that time, and hopefully some thoughts of thanks.
Here is a picture of the table, and the turkey. We’re still eating some soup made from the leftover turkey, but I think everything else is gone – except the extra weight I have gained 😉
