The party took place last night of course, and it went VERY well I think. The turkey got done almost an hour early, which was REAL weird, but it was pretty close to perfect. Making the ham was a little odd, with some VERY different cooktimes between the Alton Brown recipe I considered using and the instructions on the ham itself- Alton's recipe called for a total of FIVE HOURS cooktime, whereas the package calculation per-pound time was about 2 hours. O.o Guess which times I used. ;)
In any event, it was a lot of fun, much food was consumed and I kinda overindulged just a touch with the alcohol- over the evening it was seven beers and 4... Wait, 5 shots of scotch. No hangover now at all, and while I was a slight bit wonky last night I was fine when I crashed. The only real side effect is I may've melted my stomach lining! But gatorade is fixing that apparently. Prolly I just needed to get some of those electrolytey things.
Now there's a bit of cleanup left, but its not going to be too bad. Happy Halloween!
