happy turkey day

as though i needed any more explanation for the day.. everyone on facebook had their status set to "happy thanksgiving" and what not. i felt obligation to write on here happy thanksgiving.. and so i am. but i must say, our feast for the day was absolutely amazing! i remember that i had green bean casarole, a crisp, warm roll, some mashed potatoes, two vegetarian dishes; one being a swedish vegetarian dish that anna had made (eggs, peppers, cheese and crust) baked into one.. along with a vegetarian dish my cousin had brought (fresh basil leaves, tomatoes, fresh cut mozerella cheese, whole balsanic vinegeret, olive oil) and both were aboslutely amazing. not to mention some homemade cherry pie and a twisted version of apple pie my grandmother had made. although the entire concept of thanksgiving is to cook a giant turkey and eat it, i didnt have any because of course i am a vegetarian.. and my 9 months is coming up very quickly (december 1st) i am one proud cookie!
