Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful thanksgiving this year. It was just Daniel and I. We were supposed to go to Kentucky, and have thanksgiving with one of my old roommates, but my work wouldn't let me have the day before thanksgiving off, so we had to settle with having it alone.

It was a lot of fun though. We watched a movie in the morning, and then spent a few hours in the kitchen cooking. It's not very easy planning a big meal, just for two. I didn't want to eat leftovers for weeks afterwards.

Once the food was ready, we were too excited, and forgot to take pictures, but we do have these two shots.

This is me trying to separate the skin from the meat, so I can season under the skin with sage butter. This was only an 8lb turkey, that we were very lucky to find. It was perfect for just the two of us.

These are some amazing dinner rolls I made, that got way bigger then I had planned. But, you can never have too many dinner rolls, or make them too big.

We also had stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, broccoli, and sparkling apple cider. It's nice to have a day where you can look back and think about all that you are grateful for. But also how sad, that you have to have a day set aside so that people can think about what they are grateful for.
