This was one of my favorite moments of the Inauguration--when President Obama paused to savor the moment. That, and the poem.
Lunch after the swearing in, with recipes linked in (wish I could have seen pictures!):
- First Course: Steamed Lobster with New England Clam Chowder Sauce
- Second Course: Hickory Grilled Bison with Red Potato Horseradish Cake and Wild Huckleberry Reduction
- Third Course: Hudson Valley Apple Pie with Sour Cream Ice Cream, Aged Cheese and Honey
Now I'm watching and waiting to see what Mrs. Obama's ball gown will look like. The first lady ball gowns are always one of my favorite exhibits at the American History Museum, right up there with Dorothy's ruby slippers and Julia Child's kitchen.

I watched clips of this being played over and over and over on the TV screens at the airport all night long last night. I too loved that shot of President Obama looking back and savoring the moment, and who can resist Michelle Obama's natural beauty? Nice.
It was a beautiful red gown. Michelle is a very pretty woman. She does seem so sincere.
