Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey 'all,

A few days late but Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. This is a holiday that Erin and I really missed. My bro emailed me a picture of his holiday feast with his family, and Erin and I were drooling at the sight of the food spread on the table. We would give anything for some turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie... (not to mention friends and family which, of course, is more important). But we've been eating primarily porridge (oatmeal) for breakfast, vegetable curry with rice for lunch, and daal baht for dinner every day. Ben and Casey - if you are reading - we are going to have a fat, fat meal for Christmas. Please tell me those ingredients are available in Malaysia!

We just returned today from our 2-week trek into Annapurna Sanctuary. It was a fascinating trip and went well. We'll give more details and pic's soon. Just wanted to say hello and let everyone know we're alive and well.

By the way, I noticed the Dallas Cowboys and Boston Celtics are both 10-1. We're back, baby!

Cheers,
Drew

Glad to hear you guys had a great trip. Looking forward to the pics.

We had a nice Thanksgiving, and the turkey was ready at 6pm, not midnight this time! :-) Missed having you guys there!!!!

Have fun and stay safe!

Happy Thanksgiving! We had dinner at my sister's and had a ham not a turkey b/c Yoshi likes ham. Then we headed to Denver to hang with that crew and ended up going bowling with like 20 people! Myles is a bit under the weather so we took it easy yesterday but we're heading back to Denver today! I've been searching kayak.com all day...
Anyhow, next year's Thanksgiving will be fantastic! Or when you two get back to Colorado we could have a big dinner!!
Love you both,
Aly

Drew,
You wondered if we have access to the ingredients necessary for a fat fat Christmas meal. Yes and No. A proper size ham is nearly impossible to find and turkey is rare and crazy expensive. In honor of your visit though we will pull out all the stops and do it right. Considering my Thanksgiving meal consisted of the dinner platter at KFC I could use the motivation. See you soon - when do you touch down?
