Re: Thanksgiving wine

Hi Trevor - In the US Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth thursday in
November, thanks to President Lincoln.  It's a big family day.  My wife and
I just had the 38th Thanksgiving dinner here at our house.  Twentynine
family members attended, nine of which are under 5 years.  The dinner is
usually turkey and traditional side dishes but this year our theme was
Italian.  We have a non-turkey Thanksgiving every few years just to shake
the group up.   I served a cranberry/raisin wine but my family is not big on
wine.  Light beer, fruit punch and Coke were consumed in large volume.
