In honor of the day

[shimotsuki]

This got me wondering -- are there still harvest festivals celebrated in the UK? Is it on a sort of place-by-place basis? The phrase "Harvest Home" is running through my head...

Hope everyone has a nice day, whether it involves turkey or not. Actually, mine won't either...I'm doing a dinner for two this year, and I've never actually cooked a whole bird of any sort before -- curries, casseroles, and stir-fries are more my style. So I thought I'd start small and try a Cornish hen!

The hen is in the oven now (so far, so good), so I'm back online again, naturally. A lot of families do their Thanksgiving dinner in the early afternoon, but my guy and I were enjoying lolling around this afternoon and decided there was no real hurry. ;)

One drawback of this household -- he doesn't like pumpkin pie, so we're not making one. But there's still some of the yummy chocolate cake with coconut frosting he made for the little party we had on Sunday, so that will do nicely instead!
