Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!!
Ah, the joys of living outside of the US on this special day. No access to football, no mother to cook yummy food, and no holiday sales tomorrow.
Instead, I had to use one of my precious vacation days to have the day off so I could, by myself, cook a turkey dinner for my beloved friends, all but one of whom aren't even American, so while they're happy to eat if it means they don't have to cook, the day itself doesn't mean much.
I'm cooking this feast at Adam's apartment, since he has a kitchen larger than a closet and also (angelic chorus) a dishwasher. This is the first party that we, as a couple, have given, and being as it's for MY holiday, I'm very excited. Only thing is, they've got some contract signing at his firm today so it's entirely possible that I'll be hosting this party by myself in his apartment because he won't get back from work until midnight. SUCK!
ok, enough whining. Must boil giblets now.
