Isolation Thanksgiving, 2020
I'm going to wheel a table out into the hallway and I've invited people from four other apartments in my building to come enjoy a thanksgiving buffet, sequentially. Just going to do appetizers and then a main course, too complicated for a first course. One of my neighbors has celiac, so I try as much as possible to minimize gluten (mostly)
Also, the bf hasn't yet proposed (see post above). I live right near the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, so I'm trying to get the kid to pop the q, bring his brand new fiance over and we turn Thanksgiving into their engagement party. Hope springs eternal, champagne quietly chills in the fridge.
