Thanksgiving love...

We had a very fun and relaxing Thanksgiving! The boys all played in the snow soon after we woke up. It was our first snow of the winter and Will's first chance to play in the snow. He had a great time, but got very chilly after falling a few times.

Will slept through lunch, but I don't think he would have been interested in the food or the conversation for very long. I think he will be more into table time next year or the year after. Our spread was delicious and representative of our bounty. We tried lentils for the first time in months. Lentils are my favorite. Everyone else in the family opted for the chickpeas. Tom loved the maple-glazed baby carrots (frozen carrots cooked in skillet with maple syrup). Blake loved the french-fried potatoes. (They were locally grown without pesticides and herbicides, and not sprayed, washed or waxed after harvest. I bought their last 20 pounds a couple of months ago.) I reveled in the lentils...did I mention that? And nobody had any allergic reactions...It helps to stick to what we know is safe!

It only took me an hour to make the whole meal. There are some really good things about this allergy!

Now I've got to run to a playdate with Blake in the living room...
