The friends we were going to have over for our Turkey feast on Thanksgiving ended up having a sick child, so we exchanged food with each other, but ate alone. The food was wonderful though. James is our resident poultry expert. He seasons the bird and stuffs it with the cornbread stuffing made by Kathie from Karen Olson's recipe. Lots of people complain that the white meat on a turkey is dry, so we cook our turkey upsidedown, so the juices can run into the white meat. The trick is always flipping the bird in the end. Here is our Turkey, that has been flipped, and is ready to carve. [I probably should have taken a picture before we turned it over, but here it is...]
We have so many blessings, and are truly grateful for this time we had to be together as a family. We've each been making our thankful lists naming something each day we have gratitude for. There are too many things to name here, but we are thankful for the gospel of Jesus Christ and the time we have between now and Christmas to focus on the wonderful gift of our Savoir's humble birth.
