Menu Plan: First Sunday of Advent
Thanksgiving was lovely. It was the first year since losing Rayan that I managed to make every single dish for the day - and they all even were served that same day! It was so good to have our friends over and share a good meal and gratitude. I am, in fact, sick after our excruciating Nutcracker schedule right after Thanksgiving. Dress rehearsal went from 3:30 to after 10:00 on Friday. Then the two shows that were pretty close together. So, I'm trying to get well as quickly as possible.
