It's Thanksgiving 2007

Luke, Rachel and I had a lovely Thanksgiving.

The meal turned out really really tasty. We had: tofurky, stuffing, green bean casserole, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffed sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie. It was ALL vegan. I was primarily responsible for the sweet potatoes and they were voted the favorite dish!

With only three of us eating, we have lots of leftovers (which we ate for lunch the next day and it was maybe even better the second day). While cooking, we had fun listening to music and watching the "Friends" Thanksgiving episodes.

The theme of the day was doing whatever we wanted. For example, we spent half the day in our pajamas. We watched TV while we ate our dinner. We didn't leave the house. A common phrase was, "Do what you want - it's Thanksgiving 2007!"

It kinda felt like we were kids pretending to be adults. But I'm very proud of us because the meal really was good and we did it all on our own.

On Friday, the three of us lounged around and then finally got dressed and ran a few errands in JP. Then we went into Allston (another neighborhood of Boston) and ate at this really great vegan Asian restaurant. We ordered way too much food so we had more leftovers to add to the already packed fridge.

Luke and Rachel left today. I worked at a Cultural Bazaar in Cambridge all afternoon. Equal Exchange is one of the sponsors, so we were selling coffee, tea, chocolate and snacks. It was fun but tiring. I'm doing it again tomorrow. It's basically this big fair with handmade crafts from all over the world. I got a scarf, mittens and two bracelets.
