I'm actually doing dinner tomorrow. I have my youngest son with me for the holiday, so I'm going to take him up to Bass Pro Shop to see Santa and do some craft stuff and I'll do a little shopping. My buddy that lives with me's girlfriend is coming down tomorrow, plus I have a few other friends stopping in throughout the day tomorrow, so I'm cooking dinner tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great time with family.
Just drained the water off of four quarts of sweet potatoes. Will make two casseroles and freeze the rest for later. Wife's doing two dozen eggs into deviled eggs right now. All to meet up at the SIL's house for the big feed; guess I'll have to take my own wine so they can drink it.
Have a great turkey day one and all!.
Spent my fourth Thanksgiving here in the Stan. This tiny chow hall did a nice job of making a Thanksgiving dinner for us though. Had a turkey bowl football game against the Infantry guys that provide the security for our camp and spanked em 27-0. Pretty good Thanksgiving, all things considered. Now to stay up all night to watch football.
Happy thanksgiving Ray. Grateful for your sacrifice.
Headed out to the local range with my BIL & nephew who heads out for Ranger school shortly. Gonna light up central WY with some powder. Sister has two turkeys on the go for a tribe of us. First holiday without parents for the siblings. A little bittersweet.
Just the wife and I this year, so I'm making white chili with the legs and thighs from my N-Mex turkey, dirty rice with elk heart, and smoked trout dip (trout from nearby lake).
Taking it easy this year since our house is in construction and the rentals kitchen leaves a lot to be desired. The wife, little man and I are going to relax and head to a friends house and enjoy not cooking....though I'd much prefer to have a bird in the oven and one in the Big Green egg.
Thankful for good friends and family to share today with.
