yee-hah! Turkey!
It was a great day. I got up at 08:30ish and was cleaning and cooking by 09:00ish. The turkey went into the oven on time (and came out a good 45-60 minutes earlier than expected). The guests were wonderful, the food they brought equally so.
The last guest left around midnight. I put the third batch of dishes in the dish washer (thanks to the guests who washed a bunch of non-dishwasher-able things!) and now I'm relaxing for a few minutes before going to bed.
Tomorrow (well, today, really) I'm hosting a bunch more people (some who were here tonight and some more who couldn't make it) to help eat the leftovers. I have no clue how many people are coming or how much food will be needed/brought/available. We might wind up ordering in pizza. :) The leftovers feast will be served on paper with plastic flatware, because that's tradition (I just created it.)
I love Thanksgiving. I'm glad it happens. I wonder if I'll do a Junegiving in 2009. I didn't do one in 2007 or 2008 and I kind of missed it. Things to ponder.
Happy harvest fest, wherever you are and whenever you celebrate it!
