Turkey Day Without Turkey

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner this afternoon with some volunteers in the area, though strangely enough, the grocery stores were not overflowing with turkey and we had to settle for chicken instead. Squash was, however, abundant. There was also no football. No turkey, no football, very little cooking, no leftovers, and I didn't have to fly anywhere. In other words: Best. Thanksgiving. Ever.

They did manage to provide a token jar, baby-food sized, of cranberry sauce. Since cranberry sauce is, we decided, to Thanksgiving as fruitcake is to Christmas, this was about the right portion size.

I hope that everyone is enjoying the holiday.

Cranberry sauce is amazing with stuffing and gravy!

Well, we were missing stuffing, though there was gravy. But then, you learned to eat some pretty strange things down in Georgia.

How was Vancouver?
