Turkeys Gobble.
Until you eat them.
Tasty, yet rather quiet thanksgiving this year at Jim’s house in Bremerton. We made a lemon turkey, to which† jon lovingly stuffed compound butter under its skin. It was… a sight to see. Kind of creepy.
We also drank a bottle of red sparkling wine from Mumm that we’ve been saving since our trip down there. It was awesome. Went really well with the food – it was rich and full bodied with sweeter berry flavours than most sparklings.
This has been an incredible year for us and we have quite a bit to be thankful for, markedly so because of the financial crisis elsewhere in the world. Jon and I are doing great. We have each other, we have secure jobs, we have international travel plans in the next two months. And despite the fact that I still own a condo in a state that I don’t live in, there’s very little to complain about.
