Coast to Coast
Just wanted to wish all of my American Cousins (I’m half American) a Happy Thanksgiving from north of the border (I think Maritime calls it “Canuckistan, LOL).
Our celebration this year was a lot more modest – just the missus and me, as I have 2 elderly parents who couldn’t make the trip to our place, our circle of friends has thinned out a bit over the last year and my two grown daughters are busy as one legged asskickers – one at college and one who has a pretty high pressure but good job about 60 km away.
Started out, wanting to do turducken but that didn’t pan out, looked for a small turkey but average size around here looks to be crossbred with a pterodactyl, so in the end got quite a nice, locally sourced chicken, which I roasted to perfection.
Did bacon wrapped baked potatoes, baked yams, French cut green beans, dressing and gravy.
Warm raisin tarts with a scoop of frozen caramel yogurt for dessert. Several different bevvies of your choice.
I hope all of you had at least half as good a meal as we did and sat down and counted your blessings - the ones that really matter.
Happy Thanksgiving.
