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.

Oooh, Fernet! That sounds like a good idea.
I have eaten a LOT of Mom's artichoke dip. It is officially a holiday.

Also? I am finally watching Red, that SciFi movie with Felicia Day and Kavan Smith. At the 4 minute mark, I can already tell the effects suck. But still, it's the perfect closer to a day spent on my feet cooking (or eating).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am totally sated. K did a great T-Day dinner. And, OMG, the kids are so grown. Great company, as always.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I am officially half way through with the chemo part of the treatments.
Hooray! Hump day!

Now tagless for your comfort.
Happy birthday to K!
I didn't have time to brine the turkey this year but I did stuff under the skin with some sage, thyme and butter and basted with some chicken broth. I cooked it breast side down until the last hour and it turned out evenly crisp on the outside and moist and tender on the inside.
Leftovers are being nommed as I type and I've had three pieces of pie.

My pie turned out awesomely. I may have to remember that mix of apples for next year (3 granny smith, 2 honeycrisp, 2 red delicious). Cake was okay. Tasted good, wierd texture. Might be my oven, tho.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Am almost too full. Kristen brought home some lattes and I'm sipping one. Oliver is snoozing on a blanket in the bathroom, I gave him a bit of turkey with his supper.
He wanted OUT today, so I let him go with a sigh, and as soon as it started getting dark, he was back on my doorstep looking for food and his blanket. He drank a ton of water, ate his supper, and passed out, cold. So tomorrow I call the vet and take him in for a checkup. I'm a little bit nervous about this.
