Thanksgiving in Our New House

The prep started at 8 in the morning with rinsing out a still slightly frozen turkey. I rubbed the whole thing with olive oil, cracked pepper and salt, and dried sage, then stuffed it with oranges, red onion, fresh sage and fresh rosemary.

Eli even helped set the table. And here he patiently awaits the "Turkey Please!"

It was nice to have a housefull for Thanksgiving - Uncle Bear and Aunt Pat, Carlean, Joan, Marge, Mia and Caude, even the illusive Will turned up! Though the photographic evidence remains sketchy...

Shaun and his sibs were in rare form. Everyone seemed to have a good time.
