Happy Thanksgiving, fellow Canuckians! So what are you having for dinner?[More:] I'm making roast free range chicken with chestnut-sausage stuffing (there's a real chestnut tree here!), squash from my garden at home, corn from the garden here, and broccoli with my own wicked cheese sauce. And maybe some smashed potatoes for the gravy. To finish, Tarte Tatin made with apples from a very special tree that I sit under reading whenever I can.
Do you deliver?

That all sounds so yummy... Thanksgiving's one of my favorite holidays, Canadian or American. They just delivered our new stove today, and one of the first things I thought of was Thanksgiving... now we have an oven that works and won't blow up the block.

It's Raining Florence Henderson: No, I don't, but you're welcome to come to my island paradise and join me for dinner. Bring wine. *sets out candlesticks*

Pips: Thanks! I'm on my own for this one, so will eat at the table. Needless to say, there will be tonnes of leftovers, but I fucking refuse to not have a good dinner. Chicken & stuffing sandwiches all week! Yay!

I'm gonna get a burrito and a six pack of Miller High Life.

Vive Le Canada!

Happy fucking birthday! Rassling sounds like the way to go.

I made a Cherimoya + Raspberry Pie with Lemon Frosting in a Chocolate-Filbert Crust. Then I was too tired to actually make the dinner part so I just ate half a pie.

Happy friggin' birthday elizard.

My mother made the dinner with my sister's help. So it was standard - turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, my mother's homemade rolls which are to die for, my mother's homemade pickles (ditto), peas, carrots, cranberry sauce, Caesar salad, some kind of fruit salad with marshmallows in it (I passed on that), and for dessert, homemade apple pie, homemade pumpkin pie with whipped cream, and ice cream.

And now it's back on my diet until Christmas time;-)
