Beautiful weather today in North Texas. Partly cloudy with a temperature of around 18 C, rising to 26 C this afternoon. Birds are chirping. My hibiscuses made it though with only minor cold burns. One of the is opening a bloom today...

Of course by monday morning, it's supposed to be -10 C.

Time to defrost the turkey.

It's about 2:00 PM PST (GMT-8). It's -8 C way too cold for me. Weatherman says it might be the first coast to coast white Christmas in 40 years.

Must take the turkey out of the freezer and allow it to slowly defrost in the fridge.



Which one is the turkey?

Can I select "all of the above"?

Actually, this reminds me of the West Wing episode involving CJ, the turkey and the presidential pardon.

At second glance, I don't think I have all of that *in" my freezer, plus the turkey isn't frozen?

Love that episode! CJ had such a problem deciding which turkey got pardoned. And then her reaction...oh boy...when she found out what would happen to the turkey who didn't make the cut.

Welcome to Texas.
That was my first winter in Texas. The next winter, I was mowing my lawn on Christmas Eve and sipping lemonade in my shorts on the back porch. Strange climate in Texas.
