Thanksgiving Live: Good Morning

"Happy Thanksgiving!" came the clarion cry at 6:51 a.m., almost exactly 9 hours after the kids fell asleep (which is about 2.5 hours too short but whose counting?) and not quite 7 after I finally put the pre-baked and cooled rolls in the fridge. They are ready to help, watching the prep of the turkey and making placecards for the table.

Our guests, Ma, Gong, and Goo, are on their way and should be here in about an hour. I think they're as excited as the kids.

So, I must go get dressed and start helping, too. The first thing of the day is to find Bud's missing dagger so he can show his grandparents.

For your reading enjoyment, check out an article on Thanksgiving internet searches on Allrecipes.com across the nation. I've scanned it, but am here to say I didn't look up how to make a bread dough cornucopia centerpiece. I did, however, search "Brussel sprouts," which is now in the Top 10. I just didn't do it on Allrecipes.com.
