Thanksgiving in Virginia

By calling in our reservations two years earlier, we were able to get exclusive seats at Chateau de CloverLea in Virginia for the famous Thanksgiving feast. Whoa nellie! What a table!



Chef of the Chateau de CloverLea can be seen below in the picture. She was moving so fast throughout the meal that we were lucky to get this still photo!




Second in Command at the Chateau de CloverLea can be seen below guarding the pantry. If not for him carefully rationing the food, the ding-dongs and oatmeal creme pies would disappear into my belly in a matter of minutes.



For a reasonable sitting fee of only $100, we were able to get our photo taken while we were eating.





After we were finished eating, we graciously left some of our scraps on the table so that grandchildren of the the Chateau de CloverLea Chef could also enjoy Thanksgiving. We enjoyed the idea so much, we are thinking of making it our family tradition (kids don't need to eat that much anyway, right?) Happy thanksgiving! Thank you to Grandma L, Grandpa Ja, Aunt Ja, and Uncle J for their hospitality!
