11:15 pm: All our guests voted for our home-cooked pumpkin pie over the ridiculously expensive pumpkin pie from the Thanksgiving store (even if our crust did stick to the bottom of the pan).
11:45 pm: Mom: "Clarie! where's the blog?"
me: "ummm, on the internet?"
mommy: "No I know but is it in the bedroom?"
me: "well, it is if there is a computer in the bedroom..."
mommy: "oh good. I need to go defend myself, I'm just sure of it!"
12:30 am: I fall asleep while Mom sits on the next bed "rebutting" and laughing to herself at all her clever jokes.
11:00 am: WOW we slept in. Also I had nightmares and scared mom. Also we have a lot of dishes to do!
SUMMARY:
Success! We wined and dined (thanks to a bottle of wine from each of my frands and some delicious cheese from the host fam, and oh yeah, everything we made), and generally had a grand affair. Some of my favorite parts were mom's French phrases and the pie competition. I actually could not tell a difference between ours and the one we bought once they were covered in ice cream, although as my host mom said, "There is a very big difference between them. Yours is better!"
