Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like the sound of half way!

Used hot stuffing. Upside - cooked turkey faster. Downside: white meat slightly dry though not noticable with gravy. Made pumpkin pie with coconut milk. Difference very slight from making with evaporated or condensed cow milk, and I think better. Cranberry relish minor variation from ocean spray recipe. (Cranberries, apples, raisin, lemon juice, sweetener).

Hooray for being halfway through!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks all! I think it sounds good too!

Yay! for being halfway there, Perkins

Dinner is done, most of the dishes are done too (thank you MiL!). The turkey was delicious but my favorite part of the meal was the dressing. Yum. Luckily for me (but not my waistline) I hella overproduced on the dressing.

We have eaten delicious turkey that Katie made. By far the best turkey I've had. And the usual sides. And cheese. And since it was Katie's birthday, we also had cake and apple crisp.

Everything was delicious and the company, as ever, was wonderful.

So tired though.

Just got home from KCD's. It was way more comfortable than I expected. CJ had a good time hanging out/playing with the other teens.

I was able to introduce KCD's gf and another guest to Fernet. Heh. Loved the looks on their faces.

I have a food coma too.

I'm sure you were all waiting with bated breath to discover that the stuffing did, indeed, turn out fine. Totally yummy (corn bread stuffing with cran-raisins, leeks, celery, apples, and walnuts). Turkey was excellent, roasted vegetables were a little cold but excellent, the corn meal-pine nut twists over-rose but tasted fabulous, and the pies all turned out great.

And now I have a small tupperware of leftover mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, & gravy in the fridge.
