Schedule?
- 1:00 p.m. - Come make food stuffs (we have the tofu/bird under control)
- 1:00 p.m. - BIRD GOES IN!
- 4:00 p.m. - Targeted eating time (errr, right). For all the veggies in the house, this worked out very well. :)
- 4:30 p.m. - Bird comes out. It's done! No, wait. Why is it bloody? GROSS. Ursula says to put it back in.
- 6:41 p.m. - Shite! Bird is still cooking? Wtf? Hopefully it'll be done soon.... Travis is in charge now.
- 7:30ish - Bird comes out. It is delicious and not full of salmonella. Brining for 18+ hours is great for birds. Awesome. The tofurkey was awesome and actually was on time. Damn.
- Anytime to late night-ish - Come because you need to have a drink after hanging out with your family for 8 hours.
- 10:00 p.m. - There are 11 bottles of wine left. Come have some.
- 1:00 a.m. - Everyone is home and dry. Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you, Houseku, for your awesome accomodations.
If you are eating, please bring something to share!
Ohh, the drink situation is looking slim. Help!
Come and go as you please and bring friends. There is space. I promise. :)
Parking Notes
- Car people, we have some loading area, park at the top of the driveway briefly to load/unload stuff. After that good luck, it's not usually too tough to find stuff within a couple blocks of here.
- Bike people, we have space downstairs for your bikes, let somebody know you are here so that they will open the door but you can go down the driveway to the entrance to 225 and put your bike inside.
