Happy Thanksgiving from San Diego (family visit), where it got to about 68 degrees F in the afternoon. I know, I know: disgusting place, San Diego. 😉
Happy belated Thanksgiving from Western NY, where it’s a balmy 17 degrees F, perfect swimming weather!

Happy Turkey Day!
I can answer this one for Melody.We had a 21 pound turkey stuffed with crusty sourdough and some other fancy bread that I don’t remember the name of mixed with apples, pears, a banana, dates, pecans, raisins, browned onion, a little celery root, spices like basil, marjoram, cinnamon, dried cilantro, parsley, maybe a pinch of sage and about a fourth of a bottle of some nice Armenian brandy. Wild rice casserole made with some shredded carrots, browned onion, finely chopped sautéed leeks, bacon, eggs and a little cream. Potatoes, carrots, pearl onions and leeks cooked with some turkey grease. Sweet potatoes steamed whole then stuffed with caramelized sweet onion, dates cooked down with more of the brandy, and chopped pecans and then finished in the oven. We also had some good bread to pass around and green salad. For desert we had homemade apple pies made with a wheat/almond meal crust and some chopped candied walnuts on top, and pies made from a combination of pumpkin, some kind of green skinned squash that I don’t recall, and some cooked yam to give it body. A guest brought homemade fudge and made pomegranate “martinis”.
Goodness, I’m surprised you didn’t all pass out, between the brandy and the ton of food and the martinis…I would’ve had to lie down for a few hours. Sounds like a wonderful day though 😆
