Nice to see you.

My brother's wife just had twins, so naturally they are having
T-Day at their house. Honestly, I don't know how she does it.
Last year I brought Jill's butternut soup, my sil fell madly in love with
it. I've made it for her since (she didn't like the hospital food), and I
know she'll want that again. I bought this fabulous tureen at Wegmans
to put it in, but I think I'll just give it to her and skip the tureen step.

I'll ask if she would like me to bring the turkey, but I know they will
want to make that.

I have become known for bringing cooked shrimp and cocktail sauce
as an appetizer. Not sure how that happened, but could anything be
easier?

Probably dessert, one of my brothers is hooked on the sour cream
cheesecake pie from Delicious Orchards, if I can get into the place
the week of, I'll pick up a couple. There's a place I know that has
terrific Italian butter cookies, I'll grab a couple three pounds of those.
