Each year we host a ThanksgivingFest for our friends at our house. JO lives for hosting events and I think Thanksgiving is his favorite. This year he cooked 34 pounds of turkey because in his words, "You cannot run out of turkey!" While I agree, I thought 34 pounds of turkey might be too much. In the end, this Thanksgiving was our best yet. Some years it gets really crazy in the kitchen right before dinner with everyone heating up their food. This year everything got on the table with very little stress, the gravy came out perfect, and 25 adults and three children sat at one long table in our kitchen. I love the idea that we can get everyone at one table.
Over the last few days JO and I have been doing a lot of apartment hunting and it will be a major miracle if we find a new place where sitting everyone at one long table is possible. We've seen some places that are more updated than ours but we haven't seen anything with a layout that even comes close to our place. Reason 856 to love this place!gm
