We enjoyed the morning, took Kai for a swim, I read my book, it was lovely. Then around 2 we started making Thanksgiving Dinner! You can tell easily enough which plate is Cynthia’s (above) and which is mine (below).

From the front yard.

This was an adventure. No can opener here. Cynthia says every single canned good in Mexico has a pop-top but since this was imported “we” (she) had to improvise!

Veg for the salad, potatoes and gravy, Cynthia’s entirely homemade green bean casserole which includes a homemade cream of mushroom soup. It was delicious. It was all delicious!

We did a lot of tidying along the way. There was another small prep area by the sink on the right. It turned out perfectly that we didn’t have to cook the turkey since the oven’s max temperature was so low it could barely cook the green beans.

Dessert! Cookies from Mérida and pecan tart from the bakery in Progreso.

Kai enjoying the fan.

From this morning when, instead of my camera being fogged up, the day was fogged up.
