I made pecan bars today.
Ich habe einen Kuchen mit Pekannüssen gebacken.
These date rolls with bacon and filled with brie will be our appetizer tomorrow: They still need to be baked.
Diese mit Brie gefüllten Dattelrollen, die mit Speck umwickelt sind, gibt es morgen als Vorspeise. Sie müssen natürlich noch gebacken werden.
Cranberry Sauce
Preiselbeeren (Moosbeeren) Sauce
Peter, Charlotte, Veronika, and Flora picked up Miriam in Auburn while I was cooking. Jonathan had to work at a law practice exam.
Miriam brought back these cute felted pumpkins and also a small yellow shell from the ocean.
Miriam hat diese hübschen gefilzten Kürbisse und auch eine kleine gelbe Muschel vom Meer mitgebracht.
Tonight, we went to a Thanksgiving Mass. Peter practiced organ beforehand and I made a few videos during his practice. Jonathan was an altar server and Veronika the cantor. My second cousin's husband just died (I share a birthday with her, I am just a few hours older) and we lit a candle for him.
Heute abend waren wir bei der Erntedankmesse. Peter hat vorher Orgel geübt und ich habe in paar Videos davon gemacht. Jonathan war Meßdiener und Veronika Vorsängerin. Wir haben auch eine Kerze für Uwe, den Mann meiner Kusine zweiten Grades angezündet, der nach langer Krankheit gestorben ist. Meine Kusine und ich sind gleich alt; ich bin nur ein paar Stunden älter.
It's nice to hear Peter's organ playing and your dinner preparations look good xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dorina. I make those little videos with Peter's music especially for my father. He always plays them to my mother and she seems to react to them.
DeleteIch wünsche euch ein schönes und stimmungsvolles Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteGanz lieben Dank! Es ist schön, alle Kinder kurz zu Hause zu haben. Morgen müssen sie zurück.
DeleteOh, yes . . I remember my mom always having a strong reaction to music and my friend Janet suggesting I make music cds for her, and I remember commenting once before on how nice it is to hear Peter play, and you answering that your dad likes playing them for your mom. I love imagining them listening together :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteI see that the dates had brie in them! They sound very good and not difficult to make . . ? How long did you bake them for? I've never baked bacon, just fried it. These sound especially good!
I will check the recipe and get back to you! They were very simple to make and could be prepped ahead.
DeleteI guess music reaches us on a deep level.
