It's that time of year again for the annual Burns-Hogge Parisian Thanksgiving Potluck! For the third year in a row, we have hosted turkey dinner at our apartment, and this time managed to squeeze in 16 adults and a 3-month old. This was our biggest Thanksgiving potluck dinner yet (we were 14 and an infant last year). Turns out this may actually be our physical capacity of seated people. Our turkey - Teddy - was a delicious French bird who was accompanied by some seriously good sides and excellent pies, including a killer pumpkin pie that was flown in overnight from the US! That's going to be hard to top next year. Unfortunately, all of the photos I took during the dinner itself have mysteriously vanished from my phone, but I did manage to capture half of our pre-dinner table and our first few guests arriving for cocktail hour in the living room I've been looking forward to wearing my shirt for the evening since my Mom brought it over from the US last month. Unless we cook another turkey for Christmas, this may have been it's big moment to shine. The little baby Hogge booties also made their appearance for a photo shoot, as did my breakfast of champions this morning: pumpkin pie, pecan pie and a steaming hot mug of coffee. Another successful Thanksgiving dinner in the books!
