Theresa and Hugh O'Byrne and their four cats hosted Nicole and me at their home in Trenton, New Jersey, for Thanksgiving. (Theresa is a former classmate of Nicole's.) I had a really great time. Thank you again Hugh and Theresa!

Theresa had a great idea when I was trying to figure out where to brine the turkey. A clean vegetable drawer in the spare refrigerator in the basement was just the right size for our 11 pound bird and it was easy to keep it cold!
Of course the task of the day on Thursday was cooking. Here's some of the results. Fortunately Ceil and Jim, Nicole's parents, joined us for the feast too or we would have had to call on the cats to help!
