An Island Thanksgiving

A common misconception about living on an island is that you must eat poorly. No grocery store? Military rations it is! Fortunately, that is not the case here on the Southeast Farallon Islands. As I've mentioned before, every two weeks we are resupplied by a group of volunteers who do a large shop for us, picking up nearly anything we request. So, despite what you may have envisioned for my island thanksgiving meal, it was in fact a feast. We still had work to do during the day, so it was late by the time we stuffed ourselves and could not even get to dessert.
