While it’s standard English weather outside (i.e. raining), in this little kitchen today, it’s becoming very American. Each year I put on a Thanksgiving meal for my housemates and friends in Oxford, and this year proves to be quite the event, with 18 people coming. As you can see on the right, I have set up a webcam for the kitchen so that you can enjoy the preparations, and I’ll be posting pictures to to my 2D-Manifestations area all day (and commenting on this post), so stay tuned!
A larger version of the webcam is available here. The pictures for the day can be found in my Thanksgiving album.
[13.30] the turkey is finally in the oven(!)
I have to say, though that the mince pies seem to have turned out well, if a little puffy 
Here’s a movie from the day:

There's lots of pictures up in the album now, so head on over and have a look. Also in the album are pictures from Thanksgiving at the Warden's on Thursday, and Templeton Guest night on Friday. It's been a good week centred on food and wine. And now I believe it's time to digest.
Once I get to a faster computer, I'll edit the timelapse movie I made from the webcam and put that up as well.

What?? *blink, blink* Am I understanding correctly that you not only experienced but also enjoyed a little bit of American…hmm, what's the word I'm looking for?… ah, yes! Culture! I am happy to see your Thanksgiving was filled with good food and good friends. Take care, and my belated congratulations, Uncle Sam!
