Warm up

The forecasters say it will be warm today with a high of around 18ºC (about 64ºF). We'll be out of the single digits, at least for now. I'll take it. It's been pretty cold these past few days.

We're making plans for our annual Thanksgiving meal. Not that there's much to do. We have most of the fixin's on hand. One of us will head across the river on Monday or Tuesday to order our traditional gigot d'agneau (leg of lamb). We've decided to ask the butcher to bone the leg, then roll it and tie it into a roast. It's something we've had done before because it makes the leg easier to roast and carve. Stay tuned!

  1. I was just thinking about you two and your Thanksgiving meal, and trying to remember what you usually make. I hope you'll share photos! (Take a photo of Ken, while you're at it, with his new glasses :) )
    How are you doing post goat attack? Sore? any big bruises?

  3. judy, we'll try to do some photos. Sometimes it feels like we do the same posts year after year. But that's ok. the order for the glasses went in on Saturday; they probably won't be ready until after Thanksgiving. As for the goat attack, I'm fine. The scrapes are healing and the soreness is fading. :)

    michael, they'd probably whisper... ;)
