tracker7My players are still showing up and having a good time, so that's something. I'm enjoying the story unfolding, so there's that, too. I'm still ready for this to wrap up, though.
The Buccaneers beat the Packers and the Chiefs beat the Bills, so we've got the first Super Bowl where a team will be playing on its home field. I've got nothing against the Bucs, and they're a strong candidate for my NFC team of choice, but I'm an AFC guy and Andy Reid is a heck of a coach, so, yeah, go Chiefs!
Last weekend, I tried something new - cooking a whole damn turkey. I've roasted legs and wings and had a prepacked breast for my own little Thanksgiving dinner, but never a whole bird. Meijer had (and still does) leftover frozen store-brand turkeys for next to nothing, so I wouldn't be out any real money if things went wrong, and if they went right, well, money well-spent. It was money well-spent. But so much food. So very much. A couple days to thaw, a half-day of prep and roasting, and a week of sandwiches and soups and chili. It was darn near overkill, but I expect I'll do it again.
Got our first real snowfall last night. About two inches in my part of town, with a little bit of freezing rain on top. No problems with the morning commute, and a solid day of very pretty views.
