It was back to basics for Thanksgiving this year. After last year’s grand Texas Thanksgiving, we kept it LA local with just a couple Texas visitors (Emily and Joseph). Leading up to Turkey Day we made a couple outings to the beach and Aquarium of the Pacific. Then on the big day, I cooked a sizeable feast suitable for a dozen folks while everyone else relaxed watching the parade and playing Mario Kart.
