Thanksgiving Preparation

OK, we got the two turkeys and they're sitting in Gaby's freezer.

Patrick brought back a ton of stuff from Indy with Mom's indispensible help - including a can of pumpkin (beats buying the whole pumpkin and processing), cranberries (fresh and dried), corn muffin mix (going to use that for the Happy Thursday next week), gravy stuff, spices, etc. - basically everything you need to make Thanksgiving - just add Turkey.

Patrick also ran off to the grocery Thursday night, so I could do all the prep in Strasbourg before heading down to the chalet. So I basically made the soup, pre-measured the dressing stuff, made the cranberry sauce, etc. I've decided that Thanksgiving is really pretty much a pain in the cul - but it's even worse when you have to be mobile. We'll see how easy it is to get the stuff to the chalet.
