the picture of ruby sitting at the table laden with loads of food will have to wait until next year, sorry to say. when the food was piping hot and ready to eat, where was ruby??? taking a nap! so all her fans will have to have this picture instead, from earlier on in the day, swinging in the kitchen while alletta, ryan and i were preparing the food. i think it went pretty well, this being my first attempt at cooking the thanksgiving meal myself. somehow i have always managed to either be invited over people's houses or be at a member of my family for thanksgiving.... so for my first time i made some of my favorites: turkey (breast only), sweet potato casserole, corn casserole, broccoli, cheesecake and cupcakes. plus alletta and ryan made this great stuffing, much better than i would have done!
there were 9 adults, and 2 babies in attendance, and the americans outnumbered the scots! that doesn't happen very often. but i didn't count ruby in that equation, since she is best of both!
