And other stories…
We celebrated a lovely Thanksgiving at my brother-in-law’s house up in New Paltz. (New Paltz being home to one of North America’s first Huguenot settlements and a town selected this year by Outside Magazine as a top destination for hiking and rock climbing.) We had a great time with Kathy’s family although our friendly Thanksgiving football game was postponed due to rain… lots of rain.
Those waiting for that famously delicious cranberry sauce were not disappointed. I made it the night before, along with a cranberry relish, to guarantee that all were sufficiently cooled for the next day’s festivities.
Kathy is also a happy camper this weekend as today I was able to finish hanging and putting the hardware on the cabinets in the pantry. (I had put the floor cabinets and countertop in place around the first of September. My wife has the patience of a saint…) What this means is that we now have sufficient storage in the pantry for all that stuff that used to be sitting on the floor.
Say, whaddya think of that stained glass window? Nice huh? (Sorry, long exposure, no tripod.)
