Thanks

O's helpin' G in the barn for the morning session, since we'll be busy in the kitchen during the evening session. E's in the cheese room, gonna join her soon - she's going to have her hands full on Saturday so she'll need some extra help then from me. Two out of the four desserts were completed last night, two more to go. Turkey's in the brine. Cutting it close on how much butter we've got (believe it or not), but we think we'll make it work.

Thanksgiving!

Thankful for (so far) having a wonderful WWOOF-ing experience. Not having loonies as our host family. A heated room with a real mattress and hot water for showers. 3 meals a day, including unlimited coffee and cheese. Happy animals and plenty of supplies to care for them.

Thankful for our families across the States. Sending us love and support all the way across the Atlantic (and sometimes even further). Sea salt caramels that have been snuck into a package of forgotten items left behind. Apricot chewies. Places to crash when we get home. Smokey treats on the back porch. Witty remarks via facebook.

Thankful for our friends, near and far. Dance parties and double whiskey smashes and football pools and drive-ins and mystery books in the mail and last call at Wally's. For missing us and thinking about us and always having the ability to make us smile.

...And that's not even covering everything!

Thanks, everyone. We'll be sure to share some Turkey Day pictures later on in the week. We miss and love you!
