Turkey Day Update

Thanksgiving went well.  Small splashes of drama, but nothing too bad.  

The spouse and I provided the following:
Sweet Potato Gratin (me)
Cornbread Stuffing w/ sausage and chestnuts (me)
Cranberry-Orange Relish (him)
Innkeeper's Pie, which is a sort of "cake batter poured in a pie crust with sauce underneath" thing.  It's a favorite in my mother's family. (me)

I was literally baking cornbread at two AM to get all this staged, so I'm glad it turned out well.

Zelda: Skyward Sword is probably the most engaging Zelda console game since the 2D era.  We're about 2.5 hours in, and I'm genuinely excited to see where it goes next.  I don't think Ocarina of Time really aged that well (I have been trying to play the 3D remake, and... snooze), Twilight Princess just seemed overly serious and honestly quite dull, and I liked the aesthetic and feel of Wind Waker but wasn't enchanted by it.  Skyward Sword is just hitting on so many ideal points for me already that I can't wait to see where things are headed.  It's sweet, and sly, and has already thrown up out unexpected creepy dark moment, and the bird thing is wonderful.

[Never got far in Majora's Mask because our version was buggy and kept crashing.]

So behind on NaNo that it's not funny.  I am also behind on correspondence and laundry. Sigh.
