2012 - Week 46 Cooking

I remain busy, here I thought things would settle down a bit.  I'm having a bit of anxiety because I haven't even started to think about Thanksgiving (other then reserving my turkey).  I'm trimming down the complexity and options this year.  I won't have help (which was very nice last year), and we'll have less people.  So I am expecting to continue to be busy for the next week at least, but need to have an idea of what I'm going to do before next weekend's winter market, so I can get what I need there for Thanksgiving.

Tonight we will head over to Grinnell to try out Carly Groben's new place, The Prairie Canary.  It should be fun, and hopefully, very delicious.
