Thanksgiving

Turkey Fryer: $40
Enough peanut oil to fill the turkey fryer: $40
Turkey: $20
The look on Grandma's face when she found out the turkey was getting started at noon (the same time we were supposed to be eating):
PRICELESS!
This year Shane decided to make an attempt at frying the turkey for our Thanksgiving dinner. So we bought the fryer, the turkey, and the peanut oil. As everything was getting set up we realized we didn't have enough peanut oil, so we had to run all over Tremonton trying to find more. Once that was taken care of and everything was ready to roll...we ran out of propane. So, it was back to the store. Dinner was set to start at noon; the turkey finally got some heat under it at, uh, noon. Everyone was a little nervous when Shane said it would only take an hour to cook, but sure enough he was right. And the turkey was SOOOOOOO good! Definitely a new tradition for our family.

It really was the best turkey I've ever had, and you know how much I dislike giving Shane compliments!
