Turkey Day

Happy Thanks­giv­ing, everyone!

My sis­ters and I have estab­lished a tra­di­tion of cook­ing Thanks­giv­ing din­ner for our fam­ily. We split up the task and each take a cou­ple of dishes. At first, we just repli­cated our family’s reg­u­lar Thanks­giv­ing menu. Last year, we each tried a cou­ple of changes. This year, though, we’ve gone all out. A new menu with all dishes planned around a cen­tral theme — apples — and we have new sides, dec­o­ra­tions, and even wine pairings!

Oh, and I wanted to thank Aaron L for his help­ful list of furkey reviews! I tried the Quorn one at Michow and Chris’s Thanks­giv­ing party last Sat­ur­day, and I have the Tofurkey “feast” for tonight. How­ever, we found a turkey that meets my stan­dards, so I’ll be eat­ing a lit­tle real meat tonight. First time in eight months!
