We had a lovely Thanksgiving, here is the table all set up for dinner…

It snowed all morning and then we had sunny skies. We brined the turkey again this year and the stuffing Lynn made was absolutely delicious.

We drank wine, ate a lot of food, watched football and spent quality time with my family… everything Thanksgiving is meant to be about. :)

The lovely Shelly at Really Rome organized a city swap this year for those who signed up on her blog. The main point was to send a little taste or feel of where you live to someone who lives somewhere else. While we only shipped to Boston, the recipient is originally from Germany, so that sort of makes it an international experience. :)

Included in our city swap care package from Durham, NC: Jim’s Own Homestyle Bar-B-Que sauce, spicy North Carolina peanuts, Tar Heel blend coffee, and a book of North Carolina photography with several comments/quips from me via sticky-notes. Hope she liked it!
