Thanksgiving and thereabouts

Thanksgiving is over and I feel like it's now time to start bracing myself for Christmas commercial madness and inevitably 2013. But let me recap the weekend.
Enjoyed a massive plate of indian food leftovers on wednesday (warm up for thurs) and had a nice thanksgiving dinner with Tara and her friends in LA. For the occasion, Russ made mashed turnips (they were creamy and delicious) and i made a watercress, radiccio, and fennel salad along with two salad dressings. My first time making salad dressing - very easy and fast - might start doing more of them. Friday and Saturday nights russ and i camped at Joshua Tree national park and we enjoyed cheesey ground turkey burritos with roasted veggies and trader joes bourbon both nights. Under an amaaazing night sky full of megawatt stars. Guys we have to go camping sometime... Its fun! I taught russ how to play spit, it was pretty funny.
As a welcome back to civilization treat, we had pizza hut for dinner on sunday night. My first pizza in months! It was like fireworks in my belly.
Not a whole lot of dinner pics. Got one of the turnips. And here are a couple of joshua tree ones. Orientation might be funky.
