Menu Plan: Thanksgiving Week!
Thanksgiving week is here again! I'm not doing quite as much as I normally do, and our friends are bringing more. Since it is the first weekend of Nutcracker performances, too, we are busier than ever this week. Yasmina's name day is Friday, and I'm trying to think of something to do to mark the day, since it will be otherwise taken up with dress rehearsal.
We are on our final week of feasting before Advent, too, so we're living it up.
