It was a small price to pay, and an accurate indication of the success of the meal that preceded it: When your stomach and liver are both too overtaxed for that final alcoholic post-prandial treat, it was a great dinner indeed.
Beautifully done, Mom and Dad.
Now can you watch your granddaughter this coming Saturday night?
And am I still in the will?

“This article was immensely entertaining. It was like having the writer at my house for Thanksgiving. I try to follow Brian's writings and wine suggestions. He's has a way of writing that brings you into his world with humor and facts that are terrific and fun........”

“Your mother is amazing! You're lucky she cooked, although I know she always does- AND its always de-licious. You would have been strongly admonished for the stuffing review- at my house, where there was no cooking going on. Each Thanksgiving, my family ate at the Turan Grato (sp?)- a lovely Italian restaurant in a basement in the city. I truly believed, at least until I met my husband, that everyone ate lamb chops and the wedding escarole soup on Thanksgiving. I had never eaten a turkey!
However, I thoroughly enjoyed your review, written to perfection!
