THANKSGIVING
Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate. I just wanted to do a little appreciation post for my Thanksgiving meal this year. Honestly, this is one of my favorite plates of the year and I am so appreciative of Caleb’s family for inviting me into their family and feeding me every year.
I didn’t grow up with Thanksgiving dinner being from an immigrant family. We were not baking a turkey and I’m pretty sure my first full roasted turkey wasn’t until I started college. My cousins and I tried to establish a Thanksgiving when we were in high school but our parents were not interested and the four of use made a little boxed Thanksgiving meal with oven roasted turkey breast. You do what you can and instant mashed potatoes and boxed stuffing isn’t too bad when you don’t have a benchmark.
All this to say, I love a home cooked Thanksgiving with all the sides and rolls and Caleb’s mom fighting with his cousin for the turkey skin while all of us graze on cheese and deviled eggs.
Happy Thanksgiving ya’ll!
