Just in case you need some tips for tomorrow’s feast.

We’re hosting a dinner. My Irish friends, Paul and Maggie, who moved to San Jose at the end of last year, have come up for a few days. It will be their first Thanks­giv­ing together in the States. We’ll also be joined by Frank & Lyndol, Raven & Iain, and Peter & Carol.

We’re cooking the turkey at high heat, using Barbara Kafka’s 500F recipe. The others are bringing everything else. Yum.
