Thanksgiving Inside The Snow Globe

[dr_phil_physics]

The All Day Snow

Wednesday's lake effect snow pretty much ignored us, but places right on Lake Michigan south of us, like St. Joseph, got 12-16". Today we woke up to a shallow, soft looking blanket of white -- the neighbor's trucks were all buried at 8am.

Looking out the windows, it really did look like the inside of a snow globe. Alas, I once again didn't get up and shoot the heaviest snow, but we did get couple of soft inches -- maybe 4-6"? We'll see in the morning.

The Dinner

Following on last Thanksgiving's success with brining wings and thighs, we repeated the experiment. The wing tips, well three of them, since the fourth was missing, went to make broth. The four remaining wing parts went on top of the glass pan with the stuffing so the juices would baste the stuffing, the four thighs went on a roasting pan.

Superb.

And maybe all that L-tryptophan is in that lousy white meat? (grin)


The Spread -- 4 Thighs, 4 Wings, NO white meat, potatoes, squash, cranberry sauce, stuffing, gravy, roasted root vegetables and pumpkin pie. (Click on photo for larger.)

Hope your Thanksgiving celebrations -- or your ordinary Thursdays -- were equally wonderful.
