Thanksgiving

My roommate Catherine and I decided to undertake the cooking of thanksgiving dinner this year. We had a great time! The turkey was moist, the potatoes were yummy and the pies were delicious! I will say though, after cleaning out the bird (or watching Catherine do it) vegetarianism didn't look too bad. Also, I had a lot more love and respect for my grandmothers who cook for four times the people every year.

We woke up early and ran a 5k so we were extra hungry for the feast. Very fun run!

Our table, I think we had enough foor for 30 people, only 11 came to dinner though. Luckily I love leftovers!

Catherine cleaning the turkey "Walter" what a champ.

I touched the raw turkey to help separate the skin... then washed my hands three times.

Carving the turkey was hilarious. We had no idea how to do it, but we got it done.
