Liz had already bought a bunch of supplies, and baked two pumpkin pies--YUM!
Supplies for making stuffing later on . . .
The Oven.
Liz did 99% of the cooking--THANKS LIZ!
Behold! I give you two incredibly rare things in Korea in the same place at the same time: 1. a turkey, and 2. an oven big enough for a 5kg turkey.
The Oven.
(Live here for almost 4 years, and THEN tell me this is not picture worthy!)
Liz did 99% of the cooking--THANKS LIZ!
Shane attempting to fix Liz's phone through some kind of American meditation energy transference: he called Liz's phone with his, and then had a conversation . . . lol.
The stuffing was then ready to send over to Brendan's place to cook there--we had no room left on the oven at Liz's place.
Checking on the turkey . . . .
Gravy, carrots, and potatoes.
My deadly girlfriend . . . sarangeyo (I love you!)
TA-DA!!! The turkey is finished cooking . . . oh baby!
Shane, Julianne, and I went to the grocery store and bought way too much to make a salad--WAY . . . TOO . . . MUCH!
Gravy . . . a beautiful thing (again, live here for 4 years and THEN tell me blah blah blah about the pics I take, lol).
Gravy, carrots, and potatoes.

The finished salad . . . wow. And that bowl is really ONLY full of vegetables. The salad was sitting in another bowl, lol.
TA-DA!!! The turkey is finished cooking . . . oh baby!
All hail the Turkey Chef!!! (Liz, on the left.) All hail the Assistant Turkey Chef (Shane, on the right.)
Shane carving up the turkey . . . OUCH! It's still hot . . .
Liz making mashed potatoes--Earl's favorite.
Earl. Sitting in the living room. Contemplating mashed potatoes . . .

I had two platefuls . . . and then I felt the presence of a 15 pound bowling ball appear in my stomach--oh! Eating Korean food, and not having regular access to rich and heavy western style foods, I really suffered for about twenty minutes . . . it's the first time I've ever felt so full that I was worried I might have a serious problem and need to leave the room--'nuff said.

See . . . I'm not kidding.
Now that is a thing of beauty. Thanks Liz!
I'll leave Homer Simpson to sum up the Thanksgiving dinner feast,
"Turkey . . . . aughgughahghaghaa . . ."

Slather on the whipped cream . . . it's not often you can use the word "slather," I like using the word "slather" . . . lol.
Seriously, a horrible pic of me from the side--that being said, still kind of funny. I should post this on my fridge and see if it motivates me to work out . . . HA!
After posting the previous picture I felt compelled to post another pic of me with a much better angle--yikes, I think some days the camera adds 20 pounds, not 10.
