Happy Turkey Day!

Well, I just wanted to wish everyone a belated Happy Thanksgiving! Just in case you were curious, we survived our first Thanksgiving away. Jason and I cooked a traditional Thanksgiving meal for several of our friends here, and I think it actually turned out well. (Or maybe that was because the Brits didn't know any better and people were humoring us by going back for seconds). Jason grilled a turkey that was quite juicy. (isn't it pretty?) There was another turkey cooked in the oven that didn't fair as well, but we attribute that more to the oven than the chef! And yes, I, the woman who has only recently picked up the art of cooking, made some really delicious sweet potatoes, if I do say so myself. We also had some green beans, stuffing, and cranberry sauce. I do have to apologize to all the Kleins out there because I don't think I did the cranberry sauce justice, but I will get 'em next year. Overall, I think the event turned out quite well. (By the way, this is a picture of the relief we felt when it was all over!) And if anyone is in need of any pie, we had more than enough to feed the entire country of Oman. I am sure I could ship some back home, if necessary. :)
