Hope you are in good companies and great food this evening
I’m so full up to my gills at the moment. I’m typing with my laptop and lying down in a 45 degree angle. I think I’ll go to sleep soon. But before I do that, I shall watch tonight’s Grey’s Anatomy. The preview promises a very thrilling episode.
I spent most of today in the kitchen prepping my first homemade Thanksgiving dinner. I made a turkey using this recipe, cranberry sauce (I can’t find the link for the recipe! Agh!), gravy using the turkey juice from the pan, mashed sweet potato. For dessert, green tea and ice cream bars.
Cranberry sauce ingredients:
1 packet cranberries
brown sugar
orange zest
orange juice
brown sugar
ground cinnamon
some thicken agent
Mashed potato ingredients:
sweet potato, boiled and mashed
half & half
brown sugar
My brother’s family is here. Four kids, four adults filling this small house. There hasn’t been a dull moment since they arrived, and hardly any little beings were clinging to my legs most of the day. It’s wonderful. I’m very glad that they can come and spend this holiday with us. I wish we lived closer to each other.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Cheers.
