For Thanksgiving, Carlito Crush was delighted as his mother and father surprised him in Portland for a visit during the holiday. Carlito invited his fellow Python rookies over, and while they all turned him down to celebrate with their own families, just having his mother and father there was enough. His mother made the traditional turkey with a lot of fixings. Sausage stuffing, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, corn, and enough gravy to fill a swimming pool. But that’s not all! Mama Crush is dessert expert, and her talents were on full display! She made an apple pie with Pillsbury cinnamon rolls as the crust. We had a cherry pie as well! She also made an oreo pie, which was a BIG hit. But best of all, she made a “Tres Leches”, which is a Dominican three-milk cake. It really made Carlito feel like he was at home. He’s missed his mother’s cooking. While that sounds like a lot of food, the Crush men are monsters, and cleared most of the table. It was a great Turkey Day for Carlito. (180)
