16:28 | rach | hello |
16:38 | owen | hi rach |
16:40 | chris | morning owen |
16:40 | owen | hi chris |
16:41 | Did your ex-pat wife make you celebrate Thanksgiving? | |
16:42 | chris | not this year |
16:42 | but she did find http://www.scottos.co.nz/store/merchant.mvc yesterday | |
16:43 | so we have somewhere we can get pumpkin in a can :) so maybe we will make a pumpkin pie for xmas instead | |
16:45 | owen | I love pumpkin pie. I made two for Thanksgiving this year. |
16:45 | chris | i quite like them too |
16:46 | you cant get the same sort of pumpkins here though | |
16:46 | so every year its a hunt to try to find some pumpkin pie mix :) | |
16:48 | owen | What about turkey? Do NZ'ers ever fix whole turkeys? |
16:49 | chris | yep often of christmas |
16:49 | in fact that is about the only time nzers usually eat turkey | |
16:50 | of=for | |
16:51 | my uncle cooks xmas dinner on his bbq every year, turkey included | |
16:51 | owen | American's pretty much only cook a whole turkey for Thanksgiving and maybe Christmas. Too bad, though, 'cause turkey's so good. |
16:52 | I guess NZ is suited to BBQ on Christmas in a way the US isn't :) | |
16:53 | chris | :-) yep xmas on the beach ... ive done that before |
16:54 | owen | I think you'd find many here who wouldn't mind x-mas on the beach, but few who would put up with wintery Independence Day fireworks. |
16:56 | chris | heh |
17:03 | rach | hi |
17:15 | chris | heh ive already given my parents and my sister one (not as presents though) |
17:18 | rach | more as punishment :-) |
17:19 | owen | You'd think techies got enough requests for technical support from the family! |
