Yep, Thanksgiving is just around the corner for those of us in the U.S. It's one of the favorite holidays in our house because we have a lot to be thankful about and we know it. It's also a pretty nice time of year in this part of the country; the extreme heat has finally let up and it isn't actually snowing yet. I have to wonder if the number of traffic accidents doesn't skyrocket though; people are just crazed about getting that 'just right' turkey or a special tablecloth or something. Personally I prefer to hide at home if I can! The cooler weather also means I can post a photo like this:
In the summer our oven doesn't get much of a workout since the a/c has plenty to do without the additional heat. The bbq is definitely our go-to cooking method in the summer. This little piece of pork loin came out really nicely and the bacon added something to the peas even after it had contributed it's good moistness to the loin. Yum!
On a completely different subject, I take a lot of photos. I'm currently using two cameras and my cell phone. I guess I could use the computer but not that many people want to see photos of me! The cell phone has both forward and backward facing cameras so you can take photos of yourself and something else at the same time. My wife and I were fooling around the other day and I took this one that is so bad it's funny.
I saw some famous guy on tv talking about his selfies where he takes a photo of someone else with just maybe one of his own eyes in the photo. I thought I'd try it with this feature of the phone. It actually turned out better than I'd hoped when my wife tried taking a photo of me at the same time. Hm, another life in the fast lane moment!
I'm probably going to be busy until after the big day so I'll take this opportunity to wish all of you in the states a Happy Thanksgiving and a Happy Thursday to the rest of the world. Let's hope it is a peaceful and loving one everywhere. Thanks for stopping by.
