Happy Thanksgiving!
So I have escaped the basement momentarily to host Thanksgiving for our third year. Grandma Louise was kind enough to allow us the honor : )
Shockingly, I just went outside to pick a fresh arugula garnish for our turkey platter!
This year I am keeping with traditional recipes for the sake of time and sanity. I am making the turkey, stuffing, squash, green beans with bacon, pumpkin pie, custard pie, corn on the cob, apple pie (one two crust and one with an amaretti cookie topping, and a tasty selection of pickles from the garden. We grew the squash and beans, and the turkey, apples, bread, eggs, milk, and corn are all produced locally.
I have to skip dinner at my aunt's house to work on orders this year. But it'll be worth it to feel caught up!
