Tomorrow, we will have our Thanksgiving dinner. Today, I went out to the plot to lift some of the vegetables we'll eat.
Yet another cause of thanksgiving...
Along with the turkey, we'll have roasted carrots, parsnips and red onion...
... and brussel sprouts, which I par-boiled today and tomorrow I'll stir-fry them with butter and bacon.
The turkey is swimming in Nigella Lawson's brine, awaiting tomorrow's roasting.
I made a couple of Apple and Raspberry crumbles today, and (in the interests of my guests, of course) tested one of them tonight. I've never made it before, so can't really tell whether it tasted like it ought to taste or not.
I liked it, but I'm no crumble connoisseur.
I hope y'all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day.
Tomorrow, I'll keep all of you who are on Homeschool's Facebook page up to date with how the cooking's going.
Tomorrow, whilst I slave over a hot stove, you Americans will be either:
a) eating left-over-turkey sandwiches
b) washing dishes you didn't have the energy to wash tonight
c) groaning over how much you ate today
or
d) pushing and shoving your way through Black Friday sales (that will bring out the best in y'all....ahem).
Sounds yummy!! I think I will sneak over to your Facebook page and watch the progression of the cooking tomorrow.
