Thanksgiving 09

28 Nov - Thanksgiving. We invited our prior Landlord and family over to share Thanksgiving. On Friday, Annette and Lena, Jamie's German tutor, joined us in cooking pies. They learned alot about how different things are packaged, what ingredients we use - sweet potato and pumpkin are not widely used in cooking in Germany. They also helped cook cornbread for the dressing.
On Saturday, Matias, arrived to lend a "hand" to prepare the turkey and dressing!! We had 13 people for lunch on Saturday. It was very nice and we had a great time. All our friends enjoyed the food. Favorite desserts were in order - Pecan, Sweet Potato then Pumpkin. All we had left was a little turkey, dressing and cranberry sause - the rest was GONE!!
