live long and prosper

On Thanksgiving, my roommate cooked for most of the day. I contributed by eating and cleaning up. :) I watched most of the National Dog show and finished watching Madam Secretary.

We had turkey legs, cooked in a Dutch oven-type pot, which made them so tender and delicious?! Also mashed potatoes, savory rolls, and then apple pie for dessert. C. also made pumpkin bread in the morning.

Today we watched Star Trek: Unification parts one and two (TNG) and then Unification part 3, which is the new episode of Discovery. I really enjoyed watching them this way, it felt special to see them all in a row. Season 3 of Discovery is very, very good.

It was sunny today, crisp but not too cold. At the dog park we heard Sandhill cranes, which i had expected to be South already, but apparently they wait until the last minute to migrate.

It's funny that you mention the turkey legs. My mom used to put turkey legs into a covered roaster with Campbell's Golden Mushroom soup and cook them until the meat came off the bone. We bought a turkey on sale and Shirley is going to break it into pieces. Maybe I'll get some soup and do the same.

I'm behind on Discovery but I've got time to catch up.

Yes, the meat fell off the bone, it was really wonderful. Much better imo than traditional roast turkey. :)

I'm glad you had a lovely meal

Frankly traditional roast turkey's highest best use is the next day in turkey tetrazinni.

I don't even remember what we had.
