Please pardon my lack of posts in the last five days. It’s been one of those weeks where on the very same day your home loan gets approved so you can expand and renovate your kitchen your entire family agrees to visit YOU for Thanksgiving which is five weeks away. Five. Weeks. Away.
Needless to say, I’ve been buying ranges, choosing counter tops, testing out paint samples, picking bathroom floors, etc. All this stuff has to be done so that I can indeed cook my two – count them – TWO turkeys for Thanksgiving, as well as a whole fish and lots of other fixings. We plan to roast one turkey (in my new dual-fuel gas/convection Thermador oven) and smoke the other outside in the smoker.
Anyway – I have to get back to picking counter tops. More soon. I promise.
