Day 79: Thanksgiving

It was just us this year, and with the kids still small and one who refused any sort of meat anyway, we decided not to do the full turkey thing.  But we thought it would be fun to do Cornish Hens instead.  The orange glaze on them tasted nice.  But guess who the bozo was who, even though she thought it odd that the directions said to place the bird breast side down, did so anyway without rechecking the recipe.

Duh.

Of course it was supposed to be breast side up.  Ah well.  Still tasted pretty good, and we have enough left over for sandwiches tomorrow.  Julia thought the whole bird on her plate was pretty fun, and we even found the teeny tiny wishbone to break!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I love the idea of Cornish game hens for Thanksgiving. I haven't had one, so don't know what they're like, but I'm sure I'd love yours. :)
