Had my very first thanksgiving dinner today at a (semi-American) friend's house. Normally, I'm against importing holidays, but since there was wine and good food involved, I was down with this one. I brought jams, which worked really great with the turkey, and there was a lot of food. I ate part of everything, diet and allergies be damned. It ( Read more... )
