Happy Thanksgiving!

Nov 27, 2008 09:54

So, what are we eating today?

(I don't actually know. I saw four pies downstairs, that's all I know. There might be a white chocolate cheesecake?)

ETA: EPIC NATIONAL RICKROLL. Man, the Macy's Parade got the man himself to do it. I don't think anyone can ever do it again. There will be no greater Rickroll.

I won't know until I get to my grandparent's house... but I'm making the potatoes. 10 lbs of yukon golds mashed. Yummm.... Happy Thanksgiving!

Tofurky! franklanguage November 27 2008, 16:36:47 UTC
Great stuff; I thought I was the only Tofurky roast here.

And the cranberries = simplicity:

1 cup whole fresh cranberries
rind of 1 orange (take off with peeler)
juice of 1 orange
1/4 cup sugar

Put all ingredients in food processor; whirl until chopped. Cranberry relish: double recipe as needed.

While we're at it, I'll share my cranberry relish recipe:

I bag cranberries, three small oranges, three small apples: chop roughly in food processor and add a small amount of sugar - just enough to keep it from being bitter. Add orange zest, put in fridge and let flavors merge for a day or so.
Two packages black cherry jell-o: dissolve in 1 cup hot orange juice, add 1 cup cold orange juice and let set in fridge
Add jell-o to relish, and some pecans or walnuts if desired. Mix well and let flavors merge again.

EET.

OMG, that looks a lot like the recipe my family's been using forever. Except we just throw in cut-up oranges and let 'er rip.

CLEO

Thanksgiving just got Rickrolled. Rick Astley appeared on one of the floats in the Macy's Parade.

But to answer your question:

Turkey, cornbread stuffing, mashed potatoes, buttered diced carrots, cranberry sauce, rolls, and chocolate pie.

Well, we tried to make key lime pie.

That deflated and fell apart.

Then we tried to make sweet potato pie.

That overflowed the pan,but looks good.

My sister said something about bourbon pecan pie.

Hopefully that went okay, or we got pie issues.

Also, Macy's just rickrolled.

If the bourbon pecan pie is from a Food Network recipe (I forget which chef), it's FANTASTIC! My dad made it last year and will again make it this year for our 2nd Thanksgiving (We have 2: one traditional made by my Grandma complete with green bean casserole, and a 2nd made by my mom - dessert by dad - which is very gourmet and way yummier).
