Happy Thanksgiving!



I began typing this with one hand so I could keep eating turkey pieces off the bone with my other hand - yum! Our twelfth year of marriage, but our very first turkey ever. It worked so well: Karla prepped and cooked, Chris carved and cleaned up, and we all ate it (and will be eating it for a week or two). Gravy, cranberry sauce (homemade), mashed potatoes, garlicky pumpkin, and stuffing rounded off our meal. No time or room for dessert, but plan to make individual pumpkin pies (in large muffin tins) sometime soon. We hoped to have our Canadian neighbours, Chris & Kathryn, over to share our thankfulness, but Samantha was feeling under the weather and we didn't want to pass her germs onto our friends' baby, Iris.

Hope you had a wonderful Canadian Thanksgiving, eh!
