Hello everyone for those of you following this blog I guess its time for an update. If you aren’t aware we moved to New Orleans about 6 months ago. It’s been an amazing ride so far, lots of ups and down’s mostly about our finances. It’t been a hard move for both of us, I’m leaving a job and dawn has the stress of having to support me for a bit while I get some clients, and some work here. With that said its been a great time for dawn and myself. I think we are both in a good place, and heck 70° in november? Ill take it.
Out thanks giving wasn’t going to be anything special. I decided well its our first year here Ill cook everything. I wanted Dawn to be able to come home and have a weekend off. As I started to put a menu together it kept getting bigger and bigger. A lot of food for just the two of us.
- Turkey
- Apple Pie
- Pumpkin Pie
- Garlic mashed potatoes
- Gravy
- Sweet Potato Casserole
- Green Beans, with salt pork
- Iceberg Salad, with pear, Blue cheese and toasted Pecans
I know that I’m forgetting something but that was what I remember from a full day of cooking. Dawn and started cooking in the morning and didn’t stop until 7pm It was a great day and a fun way to enjoy our new house, and feed the cats scraps as we cooked and drank Wine and Champagne all day.
We called family throughout the day, and just talked about the move here and the changes in our lives, its been an amazing experience.
Dawn and I want to thank everyone who has helped us get here. Hopefully next year someone will come visit, or we can visit our family. WE are loving it here so far and if you didn’t know I Danced at a funeral. New orleans recently was voted the most Romantic City in the world and the Number one Destination city in america. So come visit, come see the music, and come for the fun. We will be here on the porch waiting.
