thanksgiving

[arguchik]

back from a 5-day thanksgiving trip to san francisco, where my friend L and i stayed with M and A and their 2 cats in their very centrally located apartment. seriously fun. i don't even know what to write about it...there was much eating of pie (we made 5 pies--2 pecan, 2 pumpkin, and 1 cherry) and playing of euchre...there was mochi ice cream...there were movies (2 watched at home and 1 at a theater)...and we went on a nice little wine tasting jaunt up in northern sonoma county. that was super cool. i actually own four bottles of wine at the moment, all of which i have tasted and already know i like. there was also much eating--excellent, excellent food, including the thanksgiving dinner we all cooked together. we all agreed, it was probably the best thanksgiving dinner any of us have ever had--we figured it was so good because we only made things we knew we liked (and all of us have similar taste in food). i also did a bit of running mileage on some not too big SF hills, which was pretty fun.

oddly, i don't have much else to say. i had an excellent time. now i'm tired and i've got a pile of work to do. i also have a meeting first thing in the morning, which means i won't have time to finish up my work before class...so i've gotta scoot!

hope everyone else out there had an enjoyable holiday. even marina_82, who's in OZ where they don't celebrate this particular holiday. ;-)

holy crap! you play euchre?
I had no idea.

it came up at my thanksgiving too because I had the very rare experience of having more than one of my old college euchre friends in one room at the same time, but the four of us ended up thinking (without even discussing - telepathy developed when bidding has other uses too, apparently) that it might be a little exclusionary toward the rest of the guests.
