Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! So Im about to cook a turkey for the first time in my life, but before I foray out into the world of basting and boiling, I wanted to wish a Happy Thanksgiving to you all. And just remember had it been for this guy, many Americans would be feasting on their national bird over dinner. Happy Thanksgiving! Happy Thanksgiving! My friend Jennifer (MIT 01) is an artist/baker extraordinaire. This week I got her annual Thanksgiving comic in my inbox: Dear friends, May your Thanksgiving holiday be a *smashing* success, filled with family, friends, food, and fun! You can learn more about Jennifers artistic and culinary adventures at leftunattended.com. Looking for a little assistance this Thanksgiving? One place to check out is Instructables (a project of the MIT-alumni company Squid Labs), where theres a DIY Thanksgiving group, including how to fry a turkey. But the awesomest Thanksgiving project has to be the gravy fountain: whats more excessive than a giant pie? recirculating fountains of food seemed like the obvious escalation. a custom peristaltic pump design powered by an electric drill provided a gushing torrent of delicious, piping hot gravy. Have a great holiday, everyone.
