Things to be thankful for...

So I put together a schedule for people to bring meals to our friends who just had their baby, tonight was our night to feed them. Instead of dropping the food off at their doorstep we had them over to our apartment. Having friends or family over for dinner is always fun for us, we love putting our wedding gifts to good use! B/c we eat in the dining hall most nights, we hardly ever take our our serving bowls and wine glasses...but tonight we did just that. we had 4 guests total (which is pretty much the limit we can fit in our tiny dining room, not mention we don't have enough chairs for more than that!) I made turkey meatloaf (which could have turned out much better in my opinion), green beans with EVOO (any rachel ray fans out there??), red wine vinegar (I guess that would be RWV?), garlic salt and pepper; and rice pilaf. We also tried for the first time, whole wheat dinner rolls, the pillsbury ones. It wasn't all that bad. But the dessert was the best part...individual chocolate lava cakes, soooo good; and wicked easy! The little peanut just sat in her baby bjorn the whole time, squeaking a little bit every now and then, but she was so good! We're super lucky and really thankful for having made such great friends here at Choate. Too bad the night had to come to a screaching hault when it hit 730 and I had to leave to go to dorm duty :( Shouldn't complain though, as of 1130 tonight, I'm on Thanksgiving break, and I sure am thankful for that!!!
