Happy Thanksgiving! If the current weather forecasts prove to be correct, we shall enjoy beautiful weather here tomorrow. Earlier forecasts called for rain on Thanksgiving day, but the rain is now predicted to arrive on Friday.
Laura and I wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. We shall be enjoying a small gathering for Thanksgiving—just the two of us and our cats, Zeus and Thor. We shall have a festive time. We shall have New York strip steaks and eggs for breakfast. The Thanksgiving meal will be turkey breast, stuffing (made with hot Italian sausage, cubed and toasted sourdough bread, mushrooms, white onions, garlic, celery, Jalapeño peppers, seasonings, and chicken stock), mashed potatoes, turkey gravy, Brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, and champagne. I shall be pleased, should current weather forecasts hold—in particular, since I intend to roast the turkey breast on our Weber grill. I also intend to do the final cooking of the stuffing on the Weber.
Many of you will be traveling to enjoy Thanksgiving with relatives and friends. Please drive with great caution and return safely!
There will be no blog post Thursday or Friday. Enjoy!
