Gobble, gobble

Domitian is definitely the runner-up candidate for the throneAnd now a message from your imperial overlords...

There is no Latin word for 'gobble gobble'

Prince Domitian reads the Imperial turkey pardon. And wishes everyone in the U.S. a Happy Thanksgiving. Or would if, you know, there were a Thanksgiving or any turkeys in ancient Rome.

I cooked the Thanksgiving dinner - bean sauce turkey stuffed with risotto, mac and cheese with chorizo, watercress salad, cranberry relish and apple crumble. My cousin helped with the turkey and made a corn casserole. It was all rather delicious, and I have a fridge full of leftovers (really the ultimate goal of cooking all that food). Watched a couple of episodes of Dexter and did a half-assed liveblog throughout the day. Crashed for about 9 hours, then turned CNN on to find out about the Mumbai attacks I'd been avoiding yesterday.

Wow, that menu sounds good. I used to have a great recipe for cornbread stuffing (with bacon or sausage, for carnivores), and I've been craving it lately, so I might have to try to recreate it.

After a few hours of nonstop Mumbai coverage I had to take a real long break from it. I guess I should check today and find out the current situation, or maybe just catch up online....

I actually have a couple boxes of Stove Top that I decided not to make yesterday. I need to pick up some chicken stock today since I already diced the veggies to go with the stuffing.

I'm watching a scary hippo show now...they just dun et some human.
