Thanksgiving 2010: Traditional vs. Nontraditional

After a delicious traditional Thanksgiving meal in Florida with the whole family the weekend before real-Thanksgiving, the CT Rosenbergs gathered together for a decidedly nontraditional Thanksgiving on the actual date.  Last year it was Lasagna, this year was Fondue - both meat and chocolate.  Yum!  The food itself wasn't overly exciting (the sauces kinda blah and I forgot about a starch - potatoes would have been good...  oops...), but the whole fondue experience is always fun.  Some pictures from both:

The Table

Table setting with pretty napkin-fold (and oh-so-yummy sweet potatoes!!)

Oh David, I have no words...

Sophie, showing she clearly is superior in what she eats compared to David.  She is also an accomplished potato painter...


Actual Thanksgiving (Tasteless, Nontraditional, Some Family)

Table setting with napkin-pocket  (and a tablecloth that clearly wasn't ironed for the occasion)

 The table, with massive salad for 3 people (and no cucumber - oops)...

 The sauces, each with pretty labels (but the tastes were nothing exciting) 

 The goodies for the chocolate fondue - we did a surprisingly good job eating almost all of that among the 3 of us
