Chip helped us pick out good potatoes to mash.
The little guy got a bath, a hair cut, and looked sharp for Thanksgiving dinner.
We had a great spread: turkey, corn, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, rolls, and Toasted Head Chardonnay.
The turkey was the best we've ever had. It was stuffed with aromatics like apple, onion, rosemary, sage, and cinnamon, and it was covered with a chardonnay-soaked cheesecloth while baking. It was so moist and tender that you can see where we pressed it with a fork.
The rolls were made from scratch and were delicious, too. It was a great meal, and will be great leftovers for the next month and a half!
