California Thanksgiving

The locals didn't quite know what was going on when our friends Dave and Katrina arrived for Thanksgiving. We promptly set up the turkey fryer at the end of the driveway, cracked some beers, put on some Johnny Cash and got to work.



Meanwhile, Steph was inside using her "Rotato" for the first time. The thing can peel a potato in mere seconds.



The frying drew folks from around the neighborhood. Our friend Buckley even made a return visit to lick at some of the oil spillage.



The final bird was a sight to behold:



Dessert was pumpkin cheesecake, pecan pie and fudge. Even little Brandon got to try a bit. We all had similar expressions on our faces after the meal.




It was so good Steph and Kat had to serenade baby Brandon with the Violent Femmes' Blister in the Sun to get him to calm down.



All in all - a fantastic Thanksgiving.
