Since we had traveled in September and October, we spent Thanksgiving in Algiers. We ordered a small turkey breast from our butcher and ended up with a humongous turkey breast that still had feathers and quills in it! Oh Butterball we missed you!
My dear friend, Nicole, joined us for a quiet Thanksgiving dinner. We laughed like crazy about the turkey feathers and how I didn't really know how to clean it! I should have waited and let Nicole do it since she is a good Southern girl and I had no clue! LOL I made pies, gluten free rolls, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes. Nicole made a wonderful gluten free dressing and we naturally enjoyed some decent wine (decent after we poured it through the aerators)!!
I dragged out the Christmas decorations and tried to get in the holiday spirit, which isn't easy to do in the land of no Christmas. It took me a week to get motivated to decorate but I finally did.
