Happy Thanksgiving! Four am rolls around and I’m fully awake. I decided to read until 5 and then started the day. I actually feel good for a change. Yesterday was a good day. Wade and I picked up Joel and headed to Rosies so Wade could get his very first BLT this trip.
The place quickly filled up with pre-Thanksgiving revelers.
Rosies always goes all out for the holidays! After dropping Joel back home, Wade and I stopped at Whole Foods and picked up a 11.5 organic fresh turkey for today. I then picked up some meds from Walgreens and then headed home.
After I went to bed last night (I finally started crashing around 7 pm) Wade started on the cranberry sauce. Sometime during the night he pulled the turkey out of the fridge to let it come to room temp.
It’ll be a very busy day. I need to do some outside work on the patio where we’ll eat and I need to make the cornbread dressing. At 30 minutes per pound, the turkey will take a while. Everyone should start coming over sometime around 4 pm and the party and eating starts.
Stay tuned!
