our wonderful friends who we nicknamed the "shas" (natascha, sascha, mischa and greg) joined us for the thanksgiving feast! we joined forces and created the most amazing vegan, gluten and nut free meal EVER (oh and non-alcoholic)! on the menu: kaboucha squash soup, sage and lime cauliflower, maple brussel sprouts, tofurkey, oatmeal patties, plain and mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes with pear, green beans with artichokes, regular and gluten free stuffing, biscuits, cranberry sauce, pomegranate seeds and some sparkling cider to wash it down. then dessert was caramel apple crisp, pumpkin pie, pumpkin pie bars and chocolate pumpkin bread pudding all served with ice cream and whipped cream. we could not even fit all of the food on the table. if we could only eat like this every day….

mahala's birth-day out
mahala took control on her 9th birthday! it was a day off from school so we headed in tot he city where she decided we would got rowing on stow lake, eat a soft pretzel for lunch, go to the japanese tea garden to stroll around and drink hot cocoa and go to the exploratorium (which was closed but we had fun at the outdoor exhibits). we then joined daddy at the california pizza kitchen and then went home for the requested strawberry cake. full day!
mahala's party
we decided instead of a big birthday party, mahala could go to a trampoline park and dinner with 3 friends for her birthday and then they could sleep over. mahala along with sascha, ellie and zoe went to the house of air right after school and then on to tapas in san francisco. we then came home for birthday cake. only one friend was able to sleep over but all in all, it was a great day for mahala!
