One of the best things about Thanksgiving is the leftovers. Tonight I took the leftover roast harvest vegetables, added a bit of mashed potatoes and then pureed everything with some cream left from making the pumpkin pie filling, and some vegetable stock, added about a teaspoon of curry powder, some turmeric and a shake of cayenne, and now I have some very delicious curried cream-of-vegetable soup. :D
I also hit two different grocery stores to find the Kluski style noodles I need to make the traditional Turkey Stroganoff casserole tomorrow night. (Yes, it does involve canned mushroom soup, I can hear you all cringing now...) I can't understand why the Safeway only carries the wide, flat, tasteless egg noodles but not the yummy Kluski ones. Fortunately, King Soopers had the good stuff.
I spent a lot of my holiday watching the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (Vol. I) set which I borrowed from my boss (she got a free set because she's one of the many people they interviewed in the mini documentaries that accompany the eps). It's a great set, and I love watching the documentaries as much as the actual eps. The one thing I wish they'd done differently is that they left out the framing device they used for the actual tv series -- the Old Indiana Jones bits that preceded and ended each ep. I really liked those. I wonder what made them decide to leave them off the DVD set? Anyone out there know?
