Happy Thanksgiving!
Nov. 21st, 2012 06:52 pmIf this were Christmas Eve, I would be in the kitchen, headphones on, happily stirring and tasting and singing along to a newly-made mix. The fridge and sideboard would be filling up with tasty-looking morsels, the whole house would smell enticingly of cinnamon and spice and roasting dishes... and there would be a bottle of Pinot Noir within reach for the cook to refresh herself.
It's still a while until I can enact that happy image, but while my mind is in that joyful place, I'd like to wish all you Americans a VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
And being the nosy sort, I'd really like to know what you're cooking and setting before the hungry hoards tomorrow. What does 'turkey and trimmings' mean to you? Do you change the menu year to year or do you have family traditions as we do at Christmas? (and talking of: is Thanksgiving the big day of the year, or do you push the boat out again come Christmas morning?)
Whichever it is - have a wonderful day - and may there be food enough for everyone!
