I apologize for deviating, but I couldn't get online last night -
and I'd like to share what happened...
and it *is* all aobut the dinner!
I was invited to a friend's house
he had several friends in from out of town
they had a Harvest Celebration
(they're Native Americans)
because they won't be celebrating
the 'traditional T'giving...
I asked the fella
if I was invited because I'm a mixed blood
or only becuse he'd heard about
my infamous 'majick 'taters"
(whipped mashed potatos with tons of stuff in 'em)
he said "both."
LOL!~
so we had
elk roast w/onions & carrots
majick 'taters
corn
buffalo drippings gravy
sweet potatos steamed with tomatos
fry bread (traditional)
to digest,
we loaded up in the car
and caught the 8:00 meeting,
came back and had
vanilla ice cream
cherry pie.
freaking AWESOME!
and the entire evening -
didn't turn on the tv once.
no computer
just invigorating conversation
just like
'in the olden days'...
LOL!
