Thanksgiving weekend

It was a great Thanksgiving weekend--starting with some traditional Thanksgiving noshes:


I also made a gluten-free vegan pumpkin pie and vegan coffee cake!

But the exciting part was a visit from our friend Tom and his boys on Saturday--just in time to be enlisted in the Garnet Army for the big South Carolina victory over Clemson:


Very pleased I got Tom hooked on Green Smoothies:


And Tom, being the devoted Dallas fan he is, was a great reason to actually wear my Dallas Dat Nguyen shirt on Sunday gameday.  And he appreciated my debut effort of the Dallas City Satchel--he was very good-natured about the stitching mess on the strap, especially when I compared the project to a typical Dallas game this year--great and efficient start only to see things maddeningly fall apart and not go as planned when it was almost done.


For posterity's sake, the kids (because they grow so fast):


Can't wait to meet up again!

It's so funny seeing Danny look so small next to Velina and Jackson when he's actually very tall for his age. Are we raising giants or what?
