AMY!!!
HI!!!! OM goodness I love your website. It is so YOU! Bridgit W sent it to me. I saw her at Andrew's wedding. I also saw Tim W and Rob G. It was so fun and guess who officiated at the wedding...NO, NOT Mr. VG!
I also love that you married the adorable Matt B...that is so sweet.
We now live in NJ. Luke and his LOVELY wife are moving here soon...fun!
I have a very vivid memory of you coming over and heading straight to the refrig for...CRUNCHERS...your word for baby carrots! I also remember your laugh...very infectious!
Kiss Matt for me and best wishes on your cool foodie stuff.
Love,Franny VG

Ah, Dirty Dancing. A lifelong favorite. I also watched it recently, and totally realized for the first time that Kellerman's is a Jewish resort, and the Housemans are Jewish...and Johnny is a goy. It was a revelation. Also, I could totally be wrong about that.

I just discovered your blog and so far I am loving it.

Amelia, you are so funny. I'm glad the deciding factor was getting some hot mulled wine going on the stove. Loved your Thanksgiving story and your meals looks delicious. I want to make that pie!

I love the photo of the brussel sprouts! They look like little toddlers playing hide & seek, about ready to peek their heads above the bowl to see if you found them. Also, love that you had to work to get your Mom to read your blog. For so many other bloggers, their Mom's the only reader! Your cup runneth over.

This is so special, Amelia! I'm very impressed with your meal!

Darryl and I found a Mexican Dirty Dancing record at an antique store in Mexico yesterday! It was hilarious.

ERES SALVAJE! (That's Spanish for YOU'RE WILD! but I'm sure you already knew that!) : )

I spent the week grumbling because I DID have to go to somebody's house for Thanksgiving. Somebody who is not the best cook, who does things like cook turkeys to a chewy crisp, and undercook potatoes so that they're still crunchy on the inside and overcook asparagus till its brown and serve it all with no gravy so you have to drink SO MUCH WINE to get it down and then hang around until it's safe to drive home. So, like, grumble high five, man.

The pie, by the way, looks delicious... and now I want mulled wine too.
