Thanksgiving par moi

Today was the first time I cooked a Thanksgiving dinner from scratch - all by myself. I was quite proud of myself - I didn't start mise en place until around 4pm! I roasted two turkeys too.

L'Apero and decor by Nina




I separated the skin apart from the meat and marinated the meat with butter, thyme, rosemary, sage, salt & pepper, and a shitload of garlic. Then roasted them with bacons on top for about 3 hours. I think this is turkey #1.






Amir shaving the CHINESE truffles he bought for 4 Euro. hahaha


"We have the technology..." says Amir.


Delicious mashed potatoes.


Stuffing - it was pretty tasty. Yes, I am still proud






Bon App !


Pumpkin tarte - er, potiron tarte




Amir is SERIOUSLY obsessed with truffles




We played La Vache qui tache again !


heheheeh


I was the winner! But no one wanted to stop the game until I got a "tache." We didn't finish until 2 or 3 in the morning.


A very fun and successful Thanksgiving.
