We had a very successful Thanksgiving! Thanks to everyone who contributed. Wednesday night we put the turkey in the brine overnight, washed and peeled potatoes, washed green beans, made the cranberry relish and blue cheese spread, and set the table. Thursday we put the Turkey in and everyone came over. We had music playing and a slideshow of Paris pics on the TV. Everyone had a lot of conversation, and then we sat down to eat. The menu?
-Blue cheese spread with pear on crostini as an appetizer
-Wine, Crantini's and beer for drinks (thanks Robert!)
-A delicious, moist and perfectly browned turkey
-Creamy and fattening mashed potatoes
-Green beans and carmelized onions
-Sweet potatoes (Thanks Mom!)
-Stuffing (Thanks Mom!)
-Pumpkin and Apple Pie (Thanks Nancy!)
We had so much fun and it went off without a hitch. Here are just a few pictures of everyone having fun...me in the kitchen, Tom with "the Tom", eating at the table, and Tom and Mike. We wish you all a wonderful, warm and cozy kick off to the holiday season. May it be filled with love, laughter, friendship and all things to be grateful for.
