Cook, wash dishes, repeat, day 2

The 3 days of cooking began yesterday; desserts were prepared. This morning I went out to see if the dolphins were playing before the sun came up. They weren't around, but the biggest manatee I've seen out there yet was hanging out all alone by the little boat ramp by the baseball field. He was a big mass of scarred flesh from part way down his back to his tail, really badly torn up from boat propeller blades I assume. The manatee completely healed, but I'm not sure how he survived. The shots are horrible, there was little light to work with. Went home, woke up the kids and we started cooking. We made pork pie for the first time in forever. They decided to make more desserts and we laughed and made messes and have had a perfect morning. The pork pies are done, we're working on the mashed potatoes and I'm making a sweet potato souffle I haven't tried before. I also still have to make the corn souffle, I'll make that now while the potatoes are boiling I guess. Happy Thanksgiving!!
