Christy's Lovely Life

I love my dear Lord and Saviour and following where He leads. It's been quite a life of adventure - from Canada to the States to Asia and back to North America. We'll see what the next adventure will be! Feel free to leave comments!! Grace and peace to you from our Father above, the Giver of all good and perfect gifts! Love, Christy

Thanksgiving Dinner Pictures

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!! Here are a few pictures from our dinner.

This picture was taken from outside our apartment looking in. Our window wasn't quite wide enough to get the H and G in line - oh well.











Ruthie was our fantastic chef of the evening. Here she is stirring the gravy. It was so good - I hadn't had mashed potatoes and gravy for at least 5 months!


Cooking dinner with only a toaster oven and a two-burner stove proved to be interesting. Here are some biscuits (made by Sarah) baking just after the chicken came out. We didn't have pie plates, so a deep-dish apple pie is waiting for it's turn in our rice-cooker pot. We couldn't find turkey anywhere, hence the chicken. We also couldn't find pumpkin anywhere, hence the apple pie. I actually like apple pie better, anyway.

Sarah and Jessica putting on the finishing touches.


We ate far too much - we had mashed potatoes, candied sweet potatoes, corn, deviled eggs, chicken, gravy, biscuits, pineapple, various breads, and apple pie with whipped cream (whipped by hand) for dessert. Yum!

This was a unique Thanksgiving that I think we will always remember. I truly have a lot to be thankful for, not the least of which are YOU, my dear friends!!

Love, Christy

You can buy a hand-held blender for 500 NT it will help with your baking. Look in any Farmer Supermarket. Glad you had an awesome Thanksgiving!
