We spent Thanksgiving weekend in sunny Baltimore. We had quite the feast for our little family unit. Tonight was actually the first night that we did not have leftovers! I already miss the wild rice casserole that has been a staple in our family thanksgivings for as long as I can remember.
The first beast: This was the first time I have attempted to make an entire Turkey and it was exciting, nerve-racking , and a bit gross.
The other beasts:
We went to the Maryland zoo for the first time (and the first time our little beauties have been to any zoo) on Saturday.
The Maryland Zoo is really a city zoo and was only a few minutes away from our house. You would never have guessed we were in Baltimore proper once we got in however- it was really spacious and the habitats were quite nice. Next stop- the National Zoo in DC!

The whopping 9.9 pounder fit nicely in our mini fridge.
So I made the glaze and officially bought the Turkey...
but I just couldn't take out the innards myself- so Dave came in very handy.

Checking out the giraffes and the cheetah
After taking a close look at the leopard we realized that our "Cheetah Lounge"
should actually be the "Leopard Lounge"!
The lion came right up to the window to take a closer look.
