This is Cathy’s Thanksgiving Day menu. Enjoy!
Hello again. Happy Thanksgiving Day.
As you know, I had an incident involving gravity 23 days ago and basically am one handed. This does not lend itself well for my using knives, or any sort of tool normally used in cooking…go ahead, try to make scrambled eggs using only one hand, I dare you… I have seen a frying pan defy gravity and fling itself onto the floor in front of me. My dear neighbor graciously invited us to her house for the annual feast of thanks. This worked out perfectly- we made (OK, The Mister made) the starchy products and my neighbor made the main course..it was great fun and easy for me…I can’t even wash dishes by hand with this cast on….
The appetizer of raw vegetables, gherkin pickles, olives and dips. (dinner rolls in the background)…
Some condiments (and those desserts in the background)..
A very nice spiral sliced ham, cooked in an oven bag- it came out very moist.
The turkey, cooked in an oven bag and with *really* good stuffing (must be the butter used to saute the onions and celery)…
Side dishes- the Green bean casserole, always a favorite.
The mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn.
These were *excellent* baked beans.
of course, dessert…pumpkin pie, chocolate bourbon pecan pie, whipped cream and some kona coffee.
We hope all of you had a good day spent with family, friends, people you love.
