The food was piled high on the table and the glorious smells wafted through the air.  I sat comfortably in my seat allowing the warmth of the fire behind me to warm me up. The converstion and laughter around me slowly changed to the clinging of forks and knives on plates. I served myself lots of food including turkey and sweet cranberry sauce.  It was delicious!  By the end of the meal, I was so stuffed that I wasn't sure if I would manage dessert... but of course I did!
