Thanksgiving 2010

This year, Brandon and I had the opportunity (thanks to work schedules) to have Thanksgiving at home, with just the two of us. I was actually excited and looked forward to making everything, as this was our first Thanksgiving alone. We made all the normal dishes, including a pan of candied yams just for me :) Everything turned out pretty great, considering our experience. We watched Ocean's 12 & 13, played Life, took a lovely nap, and just lounged and hung out. We are grateful for the invitations we received to have dinner elsewhere, but we were looking forward to it just being us, and we had an awesome day. We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!

In my search for something good to read,  I came across this one at the library in the new books section. I judged it by it's cover. :) Me and the bread lover that I am snatched it up. Overall I liked the book- I will agree with Jacques Pepin with his review of "irreverent". I found myself rolling my eyes more than once at this man clearly knee deep in mid-life crisis. Luckily there was enough talk of bread, and interesting facts to keep me reading. It also involved enough French and even a trip to France to strike my fancy. Anyway-just thought I would share, it's a quick read and it's definitely a breath of fresh air. Something between a novel and a memoir (even though it's categorized as a memoir) I enjoyed reading it, and it even inspired me to make some homemade bread!

I think little one had a growth spurt this week! We have our "big" ultrasound on Wednesday, and we are excited-and hope to be able to determine a gender this time! Wish us luck!
