Thanksgiving 2009

ML and Robert arrived late Wednesday night.


Thanksgiving dinner at home. Earlier we had all the appetizers for lunch in the courtyard including limpia, ham biscuits, and braunsweiger and triscuits.



Lobster bisque

The whole shebang.

Fig cakes and pecan pie for dessert.

On Friday, ML made us a wonderful brunch of saltycake and spinch salad. They visited their friends, Chris and Jenny, who all later met us for dinner at Southern Rail in Carboro. On Saturday we went to Seagrove to tour 5 potters. We had dinner that night at the General Store Cafe where Tommy Edwards and his band were playing. We were sorry to see them return home Sunday morning.

Reminiscences from Quarrier Street....

October afternoon
by CW Burt

Mellow light bounces off the gold and red leaves of trees that line the street
The sun plays hide and seek with the cool breeze
Houses all facing each other with front porches
As I take the long walk home I see no other person

Unlit carved pumpkins greet me with each few steps
Their darkened eyes waiting for their own internal glow
The aroma of fallen leaves and apples mingle sublimely
How fine to know my street so well!

Most days it’s just a long walk home from school
But today, each step is a blessing
Time is a gift - moments to treasure the change from summer to winter,
From day to night, from work to play, from child to woman
Patiently awaiting my own internal glow
