I have a lot of photos to share from the past week, but just wanted to check in on the blog and make sure it's still running. (Go catch it!)
David played his Masters' Recital yesterday with three other talented musicians and his parents came up for it. I have some video footage that I'll post soon so that you who weren't there can see what it was like. All of the compositions were written by David this past year and I think they were all great. The last song they played (which was incredibly sweet) was "I'm Confessin (That I Love You)" and I almost teared up. However, I didn't get my crying genes from Dad and Grandma and did not.
Also, we have had guests in and out of our apartment this week and after the recital when David's parents and the other musicians came in we could barely fit. Parents, please keep this in mind if you plan a huge family trip and bring 2 Germans along (which would be great). Our apartment is small! I think this weekend will be dedicated to cleaning ONLY. There are instruments in every nook and cranny of this place.
I also made a sweet potato pie this week that was really good. My friend, Anna Marie, came over and we had a deliciouso time making the pie and rolling out homemade (by AM) sourdough for pizzas. If you want to make a sweet potato pie for Thanksgiving please, please, please click this link and make it. It is THAT good. Believe me. I didn't put nutmeg in it but I did double the cinnamon and it was gut. Sehr gut. I also didn't have the time or space to make the crust so I just bought one at the grocery store.
Claire- this may be a good recipe for your German Thanksgiving..?? It's very easy and requires only a few ingredients.
Love you all... and please report back soon to the blog. It misses you all!
