So once again it was the national day of eating here in the states. I had my beloved HWKDD home so I of course cooked for 2 days and we feasted, oh how we feasted. Actually I feel like I wimped out since last year I cooked for three days and had more dishes but alas…The menu was mostly the same but I’ll reprint here to avoid having to link to my post from last year. No pics cause I was too hungry to take them before we all fell to eating with a vengeance.
- Turkey, brined, air dried and roasted
- Stuffing (nope didn’t make the bread this year but still damn tasty)
- Mashed with roasted garlic and caramelized onions
- Savory Corn pudding with basil
- Green Bean Casserole (CI recipe no soup cans needed)
- Dinner Rolls (CI recipe)
- Pumpkin Pie (yes I made it)
- Tiramisu
Guests were just me, HWKDD, and Arra who had to work and her liverboy had to work as well so…I invited her over. So we ate and ate and ate. And then I cleaned up. Slept like the dead. Black Friday was interesting did a wee bit of shopping and picked up HWKDD some shirts. And a bit of yarn. I was so good considering it was a 25% off sale. The weekend has been nice some knitting, some reading, some gaming. I’m such a boring homebody these days. Also been considering the holidays as in what the fuck do I want to spend the xmas loot on. So many things…so little time. I keep thinking yarn but that seems dumb since umm the stash is rather large. A wheel for spinning would be nice but uhh…yeah like I need another hobby? There is always kitchen shit I could use but somehow its not exciting. I’m sure I’ll find something sooner or later. Probably will invest some in yarn and some in other stuff. Really I already got what I wanted when HWKDD came home.
