Gobble Gobble

Sara took the day to try prepare her father's roast beef recipe. This is a dish that she grew up eating every Sunday at her grandparents' house and then for many years afterwards when her father would cook. We cannot visit MN without her father setting aside a day to cook roast beef, and Sara always goes bonkers when dinner is served. Our house smells, apparently, just like Sara's childhood and it is amazing.

We also have less than a week until Thanksgiving! (Sara's favorite holiday.) This year we've decided to celebrate down in North Beach, at my parents' house. We're going to have a little potluck style dinner. Sara and I will go down Wednesday night so we are there to help set up, and cook a few items on Thursday. Then we'll stay Thursday night and help clean up. This will also give us time to digest our food, go back for turkey sandwiches later in the evening and relax on the bay!

Now if only the 3 remaining work days this week would fly by as quickly as they can then we could get onto the turkey!
