My in-laws do a very formal Thanksgiving dinner---polishing silver the entire week before, crystal water and wine goblets, starched linens and candelabras; my mom-in-law would slave all day to set a picture perfect table and no one could enter the dining room until it was all choreographed and the food was "displayed". One of my first years with them, as she stepped into the family room to announce "Dinner is ready please join me in the dining room" my 2 little Chihuahuas snuck in behind her and got on the table to sample a few items. When we all walked in the collective gasp was louder than a scream
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
