Thanksgiving has come and gone

We cooked up a huge feast for Thanksgiving, and it was lovely.    Thanksgiving, for those of you unaware, this is a holiday where we celebrate a moment in history where the (British) Pilgrims and the Indians came together and had dinner in celebration of their combined decision to “make peace, not war”.  

The first Thanksgiving feast lasted three days providing enough food for 53 pilgrims and 90 Native Americans.

We cooked a mixture of US and UK recipes, including Yorkshire pudding, cornbread stuffing, turkey, roast potatoes and a salad which includes acini di pepe, whipped cream and strawberries.   Oh, and apple pie.  Good stuff.

Well, off to do wedding stuffs!   Getting married tomorrow.  The pastry chef wants to know where the cake topper is.  :)
