Thanksgiving

To everyone I was unable to reach with our Thanksgiving wishes, I would like to extend them to you as well. We missed home so very much, and family. I arrived home from my short vacation with Fan the day before Thanksgiving, and was totally excited to be back with Cullen, but a bit too exhausted to take on an entire Thanksgiving meal. I cooked our Thanksgiving meal on Friday.

I found the simplest cornbread dressing recipe, Cooked some cornbread, crumbled it with some white bread we bought from the store, stuffed this into a chicken, then baked that while I made the mashed potatoes and green beans. The whole meal took hours to prepare since you can't find things like canned green beans, prepared stuffing mix, or seasoning mixes for Thanksgiving here. We both agreed that it definitely tasted like Thanksgiving. The only missing ingredient was family.

It's just a bit over a week until we fly home now. See you soon.
