Nice weather and nice food

[mtbc]

We recently had a storm pass over Britain, not that it much affected us here in Glasgow. A high pressure system is following it, tomorrow should be pleasant, just in time for not-the-weekend of course. I took the day off for Thanksgiving so perhaps we'll be able to take a nice walk with L. This evening, we drive out to the supermarket to pick up the remaining items for Thanksgiving, including a turkey crown. The traditional meal with the turkey, stuffing, pies, etc. is the kind of food I enjoy, just as I also enjoy the traditional English meals like a Sunday roast. In unrelated news, I remain overweight.

Recently, R. made us some pan de coco. She wasn't impressed with the yeast or the coconut but I thought the buns came out well. I miss living in Maharlika Village where we could walk over to the market with the people with the, er, coconut machines, and R. could select a coconut and instruct them as to what she wanted, then we would come away with our fresh, er, grounds and fluids.

We're going for salmon for this Thanksgiving.

All my US-based colleagues get Thu/Fri off this week. It'll be a quiet end of the week!

The pan de coco shown on the Wikipedia page looks tasty. I haven't had it before.

What's a turkey crown?

[mtbc]

Basically, it's just the large breast section, the body has no appendages remaining.

Oh. THat's what I've been getting us for Thanksgiving because a whole turkey is too much for two people.
