Dinner dropped down to a meager 28, but we persevered and a good time was had by all. I saw my first tofurkey from a safe distance.

We only hit nine wineries on our trek through Seneca Lake, but I would have driven there and back for one taste of the late harvest riesling from Hermann Wiemer.

We have four cases to review and the Christmas party to get ready for. Meanwhile, we are still in Cincinnati, and I am going to a live taping of A Prairie Home Companion tomorrow!

I hope everybody’s holidays were a success, and much love to the rest of my family celebrating on Sunday.

Well, I still haven’t uploaded any ravioli pictures, because I haven’t been seated at the computer long enough to do so (except when busy doing the payroll). Sunday evening the Agent and I leave for our brief junket to the Finger Lakes wine country, where we will sip some of the finest white wines and enjoyable red wines in the world. Yeah, I said it, the world. After a brief stay, we head to Cincinnati to staff his mother’s kitchen for the preparation of Thanksgiving dinner for thirty three people. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 28 pound dressed turkey, but I will next week. Wow.

Last year we went out earlier, and in addition to helping out, we cooked dinner the days leading up to the main event. This kept me in the kitchen almost the entire trip (until the panic attack that left me immobile Thursday night) but it was actually great, since it centered our activities. I like when everything happens in the kitchen.

I haven’t slept in a while, so I’m off to do that now. Updates are unlikely until we hit Cincinnati, so have a great Turkey if I don’t read you.
