Turkey Recap

Not too much to say about Thanksgiving. There was turkey (free range) and all the fixin's and challah and dinner table conversation with people I'd never before met that spanned Food Network hosts to appendicitis horror stories to fossil fuel usage in industrial agriculture. Guess which topic I brought up?

I also brought a pecan pie. It was effing delicious. Too bad I didn't take a picture 'cause it looked good too. It was seriously better than all previous pecan pies I'd made before. You want the recipe? If so I will type it up. There is really only one secret ingredient. But it is clutch.

Speaking of clutch I have got to learn to drive stick. I cannot believe how many opportunities I have missed. Except for that time when I tried to get Chris to teach me and instead he took me out to do spinouts on the back roads. Yeah that was helpful. Anyway.

Where was I? Oh, Thanksgiving. So there was food and there was conversation and there was also an alphorn. Then there was hours of walking dogs and taking care of dogs with Z. You would not believe how much some Labs can shed. Ugh. Or how fast a Brittany spaniel can run.

After that we watched The Edukators. Now that's my kind of thriller. A little romance, a lot of gorgeous mountain scenery, and some culture-jamming-idealism-gone-too-far drama (and the way cute guy from Goodbye Lenin!).

That's about all I've got. Hope y'all had a good day too.
