dec. 15-party time

today was the annual christmas lunch at my office.  this year we deep fried our turkeys on sight and the smell was AMAZING. i didn't sit down between 8 am and 3:30 pm until i was driving home.  i managed to carve 3 turkeys and a ham, as well as, coordinate getting the food onto the table and ready to serve at noon.  i had set fire to something in the microwave so airing out the office was something i did not have planned, but it was all good in the end. i was totally exhausted by the end of the day, but it was worth it to have so many people come together to share a meal.  of course, sophie needed her daily walk, and because the weather was so amzing we played outside for about 10 minutes.  it was so much fun watching her pounch and retrieve her toy.  too bad it was too dark for photos-but here's one of a turkey
