So on February 21st I got to meet Dwayne's side of the family. I got to meet his parents, his brother Joe and Joe's sweetheart Judy, his sister Mary and brother in law Frank and his daughter Jeane, and Dwayne's nephew Terry and his wife Kim and their two youngest kids Spencer and Sydney. Also Dwayne has a brother in Nevada his name is Dan and he is married to Polly, and a sister in California and I'm sorry I forgot her name. Jessica and I both had a great time meeting everyone, and there was great food that we got to eat. I also got to meet Debbie's mom Mildred.
So we have been waiting for about a month I think to meet everyone, and on the day of going to Dwayne's house I got nervous but within five minutes of being there I felt at home. Also everyone brought a food dish, there was some excellent 7 layered bean dip, scrumptious egg salad sandwiches, good spinach dip, vegetables, some awesome chow chow it's like homemade salsa, Jessica made these delicious tuna cakes with a cucumber dip to go with them, and I made a spicy chipotle turkey spread.
It started at three o'clock that day and we were almost late because of me, I had a mishap with the first batch of spicy chipotle turkey spread. When I was making the spread the morning of meeting the family I had some ground turkey and I mixed all of the ingredients together, and then put everything in a plastic container till we got to Dwayne and Debbie's house. So after I got all of the dishes cleaned I went to the store to buy a baguette for the spread, half way to the store I realized I didn't COOK THE TURKEY!!!! So I got back home started whining like a baby to Jessica, so we looked in the refrigerator and in the cupboards and found most of the ingredients that I needed to re-do the spread. We deviated from the main recipe which was a mix of two different recipes, but it turned out a lot better than I thought it would next time it's going to be spicier.
I am so glad that I got to find my dad and Debbie and both of their families.
I'm very happy for you all.
