I think I made a capon for thanksgiving one year. A nice sized bird. No dessert? Who's moving to Hawaii?
Dessert was creme brulee made by Mom. Moving to Hawaii is our guests Mr and Mrs. W
I wish I had a full time sous chef. Mrs. de-I did a great job when you were visiting "In the sticks", but my DH isn't hasn't learned this skill yet.
What a nice send off! I am sure Mr & Mrs W will miss you and Mrs d-I !!! Now you'll have someone to visit in Hawaii!!
The dinner looked wonderful!

Yum, yum, yum. I tried making yakisoba over the weekend, but I haven't got the proportions of ingrediants quite right so it was not exactly a hit. Perhaps next time I hit the stove to make something other than mac & cheese we will stick with something more classic! (although I'll leave the creme brulee making to moms, I can't believe you trust her with a blow torch! ;)
