thanksgiving in maine is being thankful for family, solar hot water making the living room 80 degrees in the beginning of winter, and the fact that the generator didnt kick on during dinner. but the posting issue lies in the access to sketchy satellite internet. so late post. sorry bunnies.
but here are some of the tasties we snarfed down

lemon parm green beans, sauerkraut [traditional czech style], cottage cheese rolls, dumpling,
honey mustard brussel sprouts, 7 fruit salad, and the spread. with gravy
my plate! and yes we also had rice. im asian. its tradition.
and last but certainly not least...
PIE! chocolate pecan, mixed berry, apple, grape, and pumpkin
Visiting from ftlob. Grape pie? I've never heard of such a thing. Tell me more! Your table is beautiful. And 80 degree living room - whoa.
ReplyDeletethanks for checking out the blog!
ReplyDeleteconcord grape pie. turns out you have to peel the grapes, cook them down, add the skins back, cook it down some more, then bake it in a pie. my mom said she hasnt made one for about 15 years. no wonder.. and surprisingly tasty since i dont like grapes outside of wine
and yes my parents have quite a nice if not overly warm house. only part of the many reasons i can't move back home with my psycho-cat...
