La Cena del Día de Acción de Gracias / Thanksgiving 1


measuring cup


rolling pin

second rising

oven



whole wheat honey butterhorns!
and my first (positive) experience making yeasty bread!


my other contribution to Thanskgiving dinner -
Green beans with bacon and hazelnuts


Alison's lemon-curd tart crust in the oven


Bottle of Jerez dulce / sweet sherry that Taylor got for me in Montilla-
helped get us through a day of cooking

Alison's lemon curd



Nerissa and I bus-ing it to Kephera's house


Me and my blue and yellow basket waiting at the bus stop-
2 pomegranates, 1 barra rústica, 1 bag of butterhorns, a cup of butter and green beans.
You can tell it rained that day.


The turkey heroes: Nerissa, Kephera and Megan


Indian food on Friday night to celebrate getting through Thursday


I don't have any pictures of the dinner. I brought my camera but was too wrapped up in what was happening to bring it out. Once I get some from one of the girls, I'll post them here. In attendance were Nerissa, Kephera, Megan, Alison and I representing California, Kephera's roommates Lawrence and Sandra, from England and Germany, respectively, Sandra's friend Christina, also German, all of my housemates (Canario, Sevillano, Cuenca, Italiano), Migue and Isa, monitores from the UC Immersion Language Program and now very good friends, and the turkey, a 7 kilo big bird we post-humously named Roberto.
