November part two

Short notes from the rest of November, which I have neglected for far too long:

We bought some Snap after the whiskey fest, and I also made gingersnaps by myself for the first time. Both are lovely!

Thanksgiving was an epic time, where I had large meals with my family, Peter's family, and Matt and Una in Secaucus. Mom and I also did our 11th (I think) annual Black Friday shopping, which left us with a very large gift for my aunt. Subsequently, after we did our third thanksgiving with friends (which was lovely, btw), we jaunted across the Lincoln Tunnel and dropped it off to her. Driving in the city was less horrible than I had expected, and we had a lovely lunch in Bryant park by the ice rink. (see: delicious perogies). Sum total of driving: 800 miles over ~17 hours (2 hrs in gridlock, mostly on the way back to pgh) and four states. A bit crazy, but definitely worth it.

There was also a bit o' frost at the end of November, and some glass pumpkin making. A good month!
