Thanksgiving can be everyday!

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." -Philippians 4:6
Jake had a huge turkey in the freezer, given to him as a bonus at Universal Studios before Thanksgiving. He's not a big meat eater, and it probably wouldn't have lasted 'til the next season, so I figured I'd try my hand at cooking my very first big bird. Some quick research on the internet provided me with some tips and tricks that, in the end, resulted in a tasty turkey. Even though I look at the photo now and realize it lacks the traditional golden sheen, I assure you it was cooked thoroughly... otherwise I would have probably gotten sick somewhere along the line of eating it for 4 days straight.

Downtown Orlando isn't too far off from here, and Jake had the idea of watching a pro NBA game. Only, he thought of it only a few hours before the final home game that would be played during my stay. Luckily, eBay pulled through. Not only did we find last-minute tickets really reasonable up for auction, the seats were great as well. It was such a thrilling game too. Fans were on their feet, there were multiple lead changes, and the final score was well over 100.
Time flies--especially when you're having as much fun as I've had here in Florida. I'm grateful for these few unexpected weeks with two gracious and fun hosts.
