here, there, everywhere

Though it came a few days early this year, I got to do something I haven't done since I moved out of New York, and eat a real Thanksgiving dinner at the ALS Thanksgiving party, with turkey and cranberry sauce (the canned kind; sorry Mom, but the canned kind is just better) and it. was. amazing. I encouraged my entire table of Japanese students to try the cranberry sauce on their turkey (they politely tried and then just as politely demurred: it's, um, okay) though fortunately the amazingness that is turkey + gravy + cranberry sauce won over Iain, at least.

At any rate, a very happy Thanksgiving to everyone back home - miss you all like crazy, and hope that you're too busy eating too much to actually be reading this right now.
