Thanksgiving with Penny
I may be a couple of weeks late getting this post together but I didn’t want the season of giving thanks to pass without sharing a few photos from our family holiday and giving an update on just how much we have to be thankful for. At the top of the list: Penelope is doing […]

Friendsgiving 2016
It may still feel like summer down south (it was 80 degrees in Louisville on Friday – but no, there’s no such thing as climate change…[eyeroll that shook the earth]) but late November is here and it’s time to stuff our faces in the name of giving thanks! Humming House is en route home after […]

Rodriguez / McClure Thanksgiving
With all the excitement about the kickstarter and the pressure to continue posting about it we never wound up posting about our Thanksgiving!! This year was a little different than usual because grandma was out of town and we did Thanksgiving at home in Nashville rather than Louisville. We made a feast fit for 3 […]

Thanksgiving Javi Style Mashed Potatoes
For a couple of years now I have been assigned to mashed potato duty at Thanksgiving. I am not sure why I was asked to make them in the first place since honestly I don’t have a recipe to make them. I guess I’m an expert now since the family keeps asking me to make […]

Bread made with corn?…it just did not click for me until I tried it. With thanksgiving coming up I decided to go for a new adventure and try to make some cornbread. I […]

Which means: – no classes next week (yay!) – no classes = no homework = more time to finish up final papers (…yay!) – free parking on campus because it’ll be […]

A Very McClure Thanksgiving
A couple of my friends mentioned that Thanksgiving is their favorite time of the year because it kicks off the holiday season, and I agree wholeheartedly. Thanksgiving is great because you get to see your family, take off of work / school for a few days, and you know there is still a month to […]

Happy Thanksgiving – and a 1944 Thanksgiving letter
Oh my. I’m more full than I expected. I thought my mom’s Sunday meals were preparing me for Thanksgiving, but I ate maybe 15 helpings of food. Javi couldn’t handle it…He’s been passed out on the couch for about 2 hours. Uff. Estoy mas llena de los que esperaba. Pense que las comidas de mama […]
