Wish I could be there. It doesn't seem right to be working today, however I will be celebrating instead on Saturday, cooking for my neighbors. Have to show them what the holiday is all about! Tonight my office is going out for a meal so I will be celebrating in a way. If I time it right I will be eating on East Coast time.
You have probably heard that the U.K. is under seige with a lot of flooding again. This happened before in 2007 and some of the people have not been able to return to their properties since then! So I can imagine how this is not welcomed. We, on the otherhand, have been spared and have seen sunny skies and warmer temps in the East. For some reason the Gods are on our side this time. Say a prayer for those left homeless in Cumbria. This is the Lake District area of which we are so in love with.
Big news: we've replaced our kettle. The old one took a dive and we were without a one for a WHOLE WEEK - major disaster for an Englishman. So we managed by boiling water in a pot on the stove. The microwave left it all foamy and yukky for some reason. Strange as I used to heat my coffee water in the micro in SD. Guess the British side of me has officially emerged.
Well, while all of you are eating your turkey, potatoes, Green Bean casserole, pumpkin and apple pies, think of poor little ole' me slaving away at work.
WAHHHHHHHHHHH!
