Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

A time spent with family and friends. Happy to be home for a holiday event and a long weekend. My husband and I decided to host the Thanksgiving this year instead of going out to eat in a restaurant. I was excited to try the Chilled Peach Soup after I tasted it on the Carnival cruise so I attempted to make it for this occasion and I was surprised that although it did not taste close to the carnival chilled peach soup it actually turned out good, I will be making them again for sure. My husband made some holiday bacon appetizer and it was delicious- no nutritional value but hey it's a holiday so we skip being health conscious in the spirit of the holiday.

Every Thanksgiving, we really don't go for the traditional Turkey because we are not really a big fan of it (booooooo right?) =) but we like turkey sandwich from a deli (what's up with that hahaha!!), anyway, so we always go for Ham instead. To complement the dish we had sweet potato, mixed vegetables and cranberry jelly. For desssert- we had fruit salad. It was a lovely evening with great food and great wine! Cheers =)
