We plan to cook another duck.<BR/><BR/>KenKen Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-1132729103802872512005-11-23T07:58:00.000+01:002005-11-23T07:58:00.000+01:00Hi Jill, that was my experience of Thanksgiving di...Hi Jill, that was my experience of Thanksgiving dinners in Paris too.
