Getting The Bird (or not)...

Since my wife and I both tend to work on holidays (mostly by choice - overtime doesn't suck), Thanksgiving dinner poses a bit of a scheduling problem. This year, we decided to dine out at one of our local buffet-type eateries.

One down note: they ran out of turkey early, so we had to settle for ham. As it turned out, it was fresh and tender, some of the best ham I've ever tasted (and I'm not what you would call a pork person).

What the hell: if that's the worst thing I can say about Thanksgiving dinner, then I can't complain - I am truly blessed.

Now, if they had run out of the pumpkin pie...
