Happy Thanksgiving

I want to wish all my readers a very Happy Thanksgiving.

My sous-vide turkey has been cooking away overnight, 12 hours for the dark meat and 8 for the white. Stay tuned, I will post the results and let you know how it turns out.

Sous vide turkey

When do we get our turkey dinner?

We are in the process of packing up the house in Oakland, plans are for it to go on the market in late January if we can complete all the work. You may have seen posts about the remodel and addition to our second home in Fort Bragg, CA. Soon it will become our first home although we plan to keep a smaller apartment or condo in the SF Bay Area. Downsizing is an emotional experience, I see the value of a minimalist lifestyle. After 27 years in this home we have accumulated way too much. And, if we couldn’t figure out what to do with it, we simply stashed it in our garage. Sooner or later you pay the price don’t you?

I will close with a couple of pictures from the coast near Fort Bragg.
