Uncle Mike's classy treasure chest of Bud Light
Our delicious spread of spirits and dessert. Cousin Travis brought the Greenlabel to share. The Knobb Creek that I sipped on all day is not pictured .
Uncle Mike made two delicious and rich cheesecakes. The one pictured on top is a lemon cheesecake and on the bottom is a pumpkin chocolate cheesecake.
I designed the place settings this year. A gold charger with white plates. Water Goblet and Wine Glass on the right.
This is the Bird we cooked this year only 1/4 of the way done. It was delicious and irresistable. We put all the stupid gimmicks to shame. This turkey was put in the oven at 8:30 AM and taken out around 2:00 PM. It was brushed with melted butter and seasoned with salt and pepper. Pinot Grigio wine was put in the bottom. Yes! it was stuffed! No it wasn't dry! No brine, no herbs under the skin, just a good oven and great cooking technique makes the perfect turkey.
This was a very wonderful thanksgiving feast. I am very grateful for all the wonderful things in my life. I have money, friends, family, and a job to go to everyday. My house is warm, my fridge is full, I have abundant hair, an internet connection, nice skin, talent, and good penmanship.
I was recently accepted to attend a conducting masterclass in Leipzig in February. I will be conducting Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony, Beethoven 5th, and Don Juan. This should be great fun.
