Scenes from Thanksgiving Dinner

OMG - two posts in one day! But I couldn't resist, since I got these pictures from my sis-in-law.

Here, in no particular order favorites, scenes from a Very Diverse Thanksgiving...

My Dad and my faithful Indian companion, Patel

Baby Tommy, great nephew and godson

Dinner among family and friends in my living room. See me in the purple? My profile is 20 pounds lighter!

The Irish side: Mikey, ma-in-law, sis-in-law, and bro-in-law from Flah-rida.
Now, where is my mother? She's sitting next to me, to my right. But shortly after, she got up and made her way into the kitchen. You know why? Probably to wash a dirty pot. Or to invent a makeshift mop with an old broom and towel.

Your first Thanksgiving looks like a hit! Now, your house will be the one they want to crash at. :)

Great pictures. That really is an impressive number of people for you to feed.

By the way, I have never heard of a Cuban mop, but it makes a lot of sense.

FFG - I know! My MIL won't take Thanksgiving back now. But I have to admit: I did like hosting it.

Gary - The Cuban mop is like a delicacy. Since my mother wasn't able to buy one, she improvised and used an old broom and towel.
