Thanksgiving

R and I will be making a huge Thanksgiving even though it's just the two of us. We each think it is by far the best meal of the year, and we try to get extra turkey when it's on sale and freeze it so we can enjoy a second Thanksgiving in April or May.

This year we'll be having:

Turkey breasts (brined of course)
Dressing
Cranberry Sauce
Sweet Potatoes
Broccoli
Beet relish (basically roasted beets and horseradish)
Banana Nut Bread
Persimmon Bread
A Small Pumpkin Pie and a small Pecan Pie

For drinks we'll have sparkling cranberry juice, sparkling pomegranate juice and wine.

Everything but the pies and drinks will be home made. Our kitchen just isn't big enough to roll out dough, which is rather sad. But aside from the small kitchen, we have a lot to be thankful for, and hope that you do to.
