I want to thank all of you who came yesterday, and those of you who didn't... you missed a hell of a party. As always, there was a diverse group of people from all over.
A few statistics:
Three cases of wine. (you lushes)
Three and a half cases of beer
Two 15 lb. turkeys
One 20 lb. turkey
Squashie-Puffs
Persimmon Pudding (yes, the persimmons finally ripened, in plastic... rrrrrr)
Various stuffings (vegetarian and vegan)
Lots of bread. And there is a lot left. Although there isn't anything to PUT on the bread. Thanks!
Catastrophic breakages were limited this year. Apparently people were a little more coordinated while navigating the throngs of people. (SHAUN...lol)
And we still made it last call, so thank you all for leaving in a timely manner.
See you all next year. Or before.
