I’ve been taking a little blogging hiatus since Thanksgiving. I think I got a little overloaded with cooking, and the dark, dark nights are getting me down. I mean, what’s the point of cooking anything if there isn’t enough light to get a good picture of it? The non-blogging streak began with Thanksgiving when I missed all sorts of good photo opportunities, what with the chaos of Thanksgiving, with people around, not to mention the wine. I did remember to capture one good photo of the meal, via my friend Abby’s plate. Here it is.

We had a potluck Thanksgiving at my folks house this year, which worked beautifully. (And you know I like potlucks.) Everyone contributed something, and no one had to stress out and get up at the crack of dawn to prep a dozen dishes. I’ll post about my contributions, namely the stuffing (gluten-free), the mushroom gravy (also gluten-free), and the delicious brussels sprouts with chestnuts in brown butter sauce from Deb over at Smitten Kitchen.

That looks amazing. How do you make gluten free stuffing?!
If you’d like, I can lighten up some of your pictures for you via Photoshop. There’s plenty of light there for a digital tinkerer.

Gary, feel free to have at it. I’ve kept all my images fully available on flickr, in all sizes. I’ve been using the Gimp here and there, but I’m no expert at it, and just haven’t bothered with fixing up my photos lately.
If I put up a photo that you edited, I’ll of course give you full credit. :)
