Thanksgiving Live: Just Desserts

Homemade pumpkin pie, homemade pecan pie, and strawberry jello with strawberries, plus real homemade whipped cream (with just a touch of sugar and whipped almost to butter) and coffee. A great way to finish the day.

But then Sis grew sad as she realized the holiday was coming to an end, even more sad that no one was sleeping over (though we're not sure where she got the idea that they were), and just plain exhausted, to the point of crawling into child's pose on the floor to sniff Shirt quietly (who doesn't smell right, for now, because of all the new patches). She's up in the tub right now, with bedtime coming early tonight. Bud has a little more energy and has been building marble runs with whomever will sit with him. He'll need a bath too but will probably need to be coaxed to it.

Otherwise, the adults are clearly starting to drag too. Everyone was up early, with lots of driving and cooking. And our own bedtimes are much further off.
