Into Harmony’s Way

Before my father, sister and I arrived, there were the mother, and the father, their son, and their daughter and her husband. And their grandparents joined us later.
“Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways and be wise.

The wonderful Thanksgiving feast featured turkey, corn, mashed potatoes, gravy, banana slices suspended in red gelatin colloid, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, sliced pumpkin bread, dinner rolls and stuffing.

How long will you lie there, O sluggard?
When will you arise from your sleep?
We played ‘Wits & Wagers.’ Five teams of two played; my sister and their mother formed one team, their son-in-law read the questions and teamed up with their grandfather.
A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest,
Their grandmother and daughter were good when they guessed, my father and their son were good when they guessed and also on the wagers, but their father and I had at least three correct answers.
and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want like an armed man.”
Later we enjoyed pumpkin pie and pecan pie;
both were also available as gluten-free.
