because there were only christa,chris and myself for a turkey dinner , we decided to order the full meal from Whole Foods grocery store.... its a great place for fine fresh food all the time so thought we'd give it a try....Chris ordered online and picked it up all packed in a box on wed.....
it was super delicious and all prepared except to heat up the turkey and side dishes.
they provided a whole turkey, and all the fixings, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce and also mashed potatoes, green beans with herb butter, rolls, and a whole fresh baked pumpkin pie....everything was outstanding and we all came to the table without stress and tired bodies from standing in the kitchen all day....ben didn't want to try the traditional fare....but did try pumpkin pie for the first time and LOVED IT ....
as i said in my last post - change is constant and this certainly was a very different way of celebrating the traditional dinner ... but it worked out wonderfully - we all loved the food and it was as good as anything we would have prepared.....
not sure why the picture is so red...... flash must have been off or something.....
all the leaves were from the yard and the bittersweet i ordered from ebay.
we cant grow it here and i really miss it having lived on the east coast where it grows wild.....
