Thanksgiving

Thursday Seth and I got up early to start the Turkey. I stuffed the inside with apples and onions and made a rub containing garlic, rosemary, poultry seasoning and some other spices and rubbed it under the skin. I then made a honey and orange juice mixture that I injected into the bird. I think it turned out very well and would like to think of myself as a gourmet. :) After a little scare with the electricity going out, everything finally came together and we headed over to our friends the Checketts for a feast. We enjoyed dinner with 3 other couples and when we were sufficiently stuffed we positioned ourselves on the couch and watched a little Dallas football. I'm very thankful that we were able to have such a wonderful dinner and while we definitely missed all our family we are glad we could spend it with Friends.
