So now with even more evidence that the year is speeding by, here it is Thanksgiving already. As a place with the task of researching ways of growing more and better food, yesterday the NCRS staff took time to enjoy a Thanksgiving feast of our own. It sounds corny (which,ironically, is one food that we did not have), but we have all been working together for quite a while, some for many years, and it was nice to sit together and enjoy a festive meal. And we have plenty for which we are Thankful. (You didn't think I would end a sentence with a preposition did you?)
I'd say it was as good as Grandma's with taters and gravy, stuffing, green bean casserole, cole slaw from our own cabbage, sweet potato casserole, chip dip, rolls, cookies, pie and of course TURKEY. And all, well mostly all, was homemade. So that was a good practice for tomorrow. It was just like family except no food fight. We all wish for you to have a great Thanksgiving wherever you are.
