A few pictures from dinners many years ago. Note that there is a pumpkin in most of these celebrations. For the kids, the dreaded soup in a pumpkin. It was like a French onion soup, but cooked in a pumpkin. They were more excited about the turkey, rolls, mashed potatoes, and even the broccoli. And of course, eggnog.
These are hard copy pictures. I have not spent the time to find later digital versions.
There were the Canadian Thanksgiving years, when we were able to have many friends over, because nobody had other plans in October. Including the infamous exploding stuffing. In those years, on American TDay, we would sometimes make a turkey sandwich and wander the quiet city.
And a memorable dinner in Missoula with Rey when we brought everything to make dinner, because his apartment had very little in the way of pots, pans, spices, etc.
Oh, the memories. Good ones.

Traditions change over time but any holiday that involves food and family is good.

Food, food, food, food,
Food, glorious food.!
That just popped into my head, but I can’t remember where it is from.
And family. No songs popping into my head, except a song from the Mr. Magoo Christmas Carol called I’m All Alone in the World. And that’s about the lack of family.
