I come baring gifts

I made these for my dad.

Fall

Ok so my Vegan Harvest dinner party when off with out a hitch. I had to push somethings to the side planning wise however the menu did not suffer. I cooked up a storm. For dinner apple stuffing, pureed butternut squash and parsnips, red cabbage, mashed potatoes and a bean salad. I also made three desserts, a pear ginger cake, a cranberry pear tart and peanut butter cookies. I had to stop myself I almost made oatmeal cookies and cranberry relish but I couldn't get to the store to buy oranges. Folks started showing up around 4:30 and added more to the spread, 2 green salads, a pasta dish, squash, a pecan pie, and watermelon. Then at 5:30 with forks in hand we ate and ate some more, laughed and had an all around good time.

Only one regret I should have made more potatoes. I went back and damn there was only a teaspoon in the pot.
