Happy Thanksgiving!

You know you are a grown up when you have to plan and cook your own Thanksgiving Dinner. Well Eric and I were pretty sad that we couldn't spend the day with our families, but we were pretty excited to attempt a full meal on our own. To prepare we watched "Bobby Flay's Turkey and Stuffing Throw Down" on the food network and I think it helped.

Eric got a HUGE turkey (17 lbs) from one of the Hooterite guys that he knows. We cooked it up and we will probably be eating turkey for the rest of the year. Green bean casserole, wild rice with heart and gizzards, mashed red potatoes, stuffing, dinner rolls, and a little bit of gravy rounded out the menu.

Eric also got to chat with his parents who have a new webcam. Very Nice!
