Thanksgiving Weekend!

It was a first! We hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for some of our family this week, and I must say, it was a success. We cheated a little by starting with a fully cooked turkey from Whole Foods, but hey-- we're vegetarians. So sue us.

The long weekend included stops in many fun spots. In the neighborhood, we ate, drank, laughed, arm wrestled, and emptied the quarters out of pockets at Barcade, The Second Chance Saloon, Taco Chulo, and Barosa. We even tried to track down the spirit of Indian Larry. And in Midtown, The Oyster Bar served as a fine spot to rest our feet.

We even got a Christmas Tree! Kelly, Amy, Carol, and Diaz decorated it beautifully... the boys, on the other hand, didn't do doodly-squat. A set of photos is here.

Halloween!

Three or four costume changes, two boroughs, an overflowing bucket full of candy, several cheap plastic vampire teeth, a package of safety pins, a dozen stuffed cats, and a mermaid tail. It was a good year... a couple of pics are here.
