I had the opportunity to cook our own brand of thanksgiving dinner with my gram today. One of the few "heirloom" recipes my mom's side of the family has is called chicken pot pie though it hardly resembles a pie. It's been in my family since before my great grandma and has always been one of my faves. Grandma hasn't made it in awhile because it's too hard to roll the dough for the pasta. I was thrilled to take it on and learn from her- and I think we did pretty ok! Even Alan was impressed- he'd never had homemade pasta before! It was a great day!
On a separate note, this year has brought a lot of change to my life and I could not be more thankful for it! I now have a new house that I adore and two "new" jobs in teaching and coaching that I simply cannot get enough of! Furthermore, I have had two of my favorite people move closer to me and I'm do lucky that I get to see them often!
