turkey with salsa

So thanksgiving was nice, a lot of tasty thanksgivingy foods. Angelo was set on making a full menu so he was the head chef of the evening, I was just the sous chef. We had a bunch of people over for dinner and pictionary afterwards. I really like having people over for dinner, it should happen more often. Although maybe with less involved meals.

Even my gerbils got to enjoy thanksgiving, I made them a turkey out of cardboard and they demolished it.

Then on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday we went to the Seattle Salsa Congress where we got our salsa on. Basically 6 hours of workshops each day, plus shows and dancing afterwards (and breaks for food). We didn’t end up doing that much dancing at night (people are actually still there dancing as I type this tonight) because we were so tired from all the stuff during the day. Well, mainly feet. I think I could go a lot longer if I had some better shoes.

It was a lot of fun though and interesting to dance New York style since most of the classes were taught by New Yorkers but I learned L.A. style here in Seattle. Lots of styling and basics and partnering stuff. Definitely needs a lot more work though!
