Thanksgiving
November 27, 2009
We had Thanksgiving up at our place again this year, with S's parents & grandmother and my parents. I always love to read about what everyone else has on their table, so here's what we had. (I neglected to take pictures of dessert...):
S. made antipasto
I made Smitten Kitchen's cheese straws (I halved the amount of pepper in the recipe)
My parents made some bread, and S's grandmother brought some rolls
I made some cranberry sauce
We mixed some sweet potatoes and roasted acorn squash together
(with brown sugar, maple syrup, butter, and about a tablespoon of amaretto...)
S. made mashed potatoes
I made some of Heidi's brussels sprouts
(I'm not really a fan... but this recipe made them the best I've ever had them.)
S. steamed some of our frozen green beans
S's grandmother made the stuffing/dressing
S. roasted the turkey

We made the custard and I even forgot to take pictures of that. Oh well. :-) It was all delicious and plenty of fun.
