This year David and I had a two Thanksgiving extravaganzas.
First, we headed to the apartment of my bosses son and daughter-in-law. My boss had invited us over for a drink and we showed up towards the end of their dinner, much to my dismay. Fortunately, no one really cared and we were set up with a glass of wine and a small plate of food which I treated as appetizers. Just a little turkey and asparagus. There was the usual family differences and even being an outsider it was easy to tell exactly what people though about each other. It was kind of weird.
After two hours, which went amazing quickly for sort of crashing a dinner party, we took our leave and jumped in a very expensive cab to Brooklyn for the real dinner.
We walked up to the door rang the door bell and pushed the open to to enter into the empty room. "Steph?" The table was set, there was food everywhere, but no people. Surreal. Then, fortunately Steph and company came up from the lower apartment and quelled our fears of being in the wrong house and the festivities began with a nice glass of Cava.
The rest of the night was a blur of cooking in Steph’s beautiful, new kitchen, eating, drinking and socializing.
