Good for what ails you

I'm probably too please with the whole being able to make chicken soup, thing, but it really makes me feel civilized.

I should let Saska blog this, but, just a hint of the tastiness that camping brings!

The end of a peach crisp - this was made in the winter, from Greenbluff Peaches, and, man-oh-man, that peach smell was still something else. The dessert may not have been beautiful, but, it sure was tasty.

We hosted a quite small Thanksgiving in our home. Josh smoked a turkey. Smoking turns out to be a wonderful way to go - the turkey turned out really nicely, and was pretty low effort, and left the oven free.

We ended up with a nice spread, including some donations from Chris and George and Rachel. (Some of which aren't pictured here.)

We got to sit down to a wonderful meal, and a beautiful table, with great friends and family. Life doesn't get better than that!

this place sounds like fun
