Our Thanksgiving dinner turned out great! The turkey was done to perfection, the pie was delicious, the yams were excellent, and I had great help. Everything went off without a hitch....we'll, almost!!!

There was one little accident that scarred my brand new oven forever. One of my strong and trusty kitchen helpers was transferring the finished turkey from the oven to the counter top for carving. The turkey bag ended up popping open and turkey juices spilled all over the inside of my brand new oven and floor. The incident created a roomful of smoke that didn’t clear out for about an hour. The scalding, greasy juices seeped into the sealed glass that creates the oven window. After several hours of total oven clean up over a period of two days, we resorted to completely dismantling the oven door. This was no easy task, that led us to discover that the glass was sealed. So, in conclusion my oven door will have burnt, ugly, greasy drip marks for it's lifetime. Please don't look too closely when you visit.

Here are some photos from the big day… I was exhausted after eating and ended up sitting on the couch playing with baby Elle, while clean-up was taking place. Thanks Ryan for doing ALL of the dishes!!! You are the MAN!
Talented cooks. Aunt Sharon's pecan pie was one of my favorite items on the menu.
This is a bad pic, with my eyes shut, but I just had to show off Elle. She looks like a little doll.
His eyes are bigger than his stomach!
Aww congrats on your big dinner! We're really grown-ups now, huh?
ReplyDeleteps- I bet you could contact the manufactorer and order more glass... but in my experience, things like that only bother the homeowner!
