Our Thanksgiving dinner was a roaring success. My wife and Abigail worked for hours preparing it. To start it off we had turkey soup with necks in it. I love turkey necks because they have so much meat on them. The next course was the meat, mashed potato, green beans, gravy and cranberry jelly. I got a drumstick that was fantastic. There was so much tasty meat on it and it was flavored with garlic that I just loved every bite. For dessert, we had pumpkin pie and apple pie. Very American! We also opened a bottle of Asti Spumante (very Continental) which was ultimately finished.
After dinner we had family time. The girls decided that we should play Monopoly. I really don't like Monopoly and that showed in my plays. In about two hours I went totally bankrupt. That much for my business acumen. On the other hand, my wife and Abigail profited from my shortcomings. Fortunately, this had no effect on the entire evening.
