Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a success for our family this past weekend. We had 20 people for dinner on Sunday, with tonnes of food and fun.
The menu included a beautiful antipasti platter (Thanks Fiona)  homemade cranberry sauce, no canned stuff for this crowd! I stuffed the 20lb bird with sausage-apple-pecan stuffing, mashed potatoes (of course) steamed veggies with cheese sauce. Sweet potato casserole (thanks to Eoin and Vanessa and Family). To top everything off homemade vanilla bean ice cream, pumpkin pies, apple crisp. Lots of wine and drinks, great family and lots of fun!
As some of you know I love to do things on the frugal side so I'm proud to say of all the things I made for thanksgiving dinner amounted to approximately 2.50 per person!!! Success!!
I am very Thankful!! Happy Thanksgiving!
