We did our thanksgiving meal yesterday (black Friday). It was a lot of hard work, but most of that was cleaning up. I also did a lot of un-packing of boxes that had been in the baby's room but had been moved to the porch. Four more empties!!!!
The food was all good. The turkey ended up fine. We cooked it in a bag, which kept it nice and moist. I didn't realize that it would also shorten the cooking time by about 30%, so it was done about 1 1/2 hours before our guests were scheduled to arrive . It had plenty of time to rest. But I did have time to get the the turkey carved before the guests got here. And my sister-in-law helped pick the bones clean, so I'm all ready to make soup.
Everyone pitched in and helped clean up, so we have a clean kitchen and a ton of leftovers, some of which will go into the freezer for post-baby meals.
