I'm slowly catching up with everything I need to do now that we have internet again so here are a few pictures from Thanksgiving a couple of weeks back. We celebrated the weekend before with all of the Sensos and then again on Thursday with just our family of three.
^^A group shot of all of us and all of the food!
^^I made the pies the day before, just your good old classic apple pie and pumpkin pie.
^^Apple pie in the oven.
^^We had turkey chili while Amelie played with some watches. She liked the Rolex the best, of course.
^^Early morning shot of the turkey, 7am.
^^Table all set and even a little place card for the baby.
^^I hope Thanksgiving is going to be her favorite holiday too!
^^From the left: green beans with pancetta & onions, baked sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts, mashed sweet potatoes, the turkey, sausage stuffing, butternut squash, mashed potatoes, apple pie, gravy, cranberry sauce and a pumpkin pie (the best recipe here.)
^^Amélie loved the pinecone.
^^I had two plates of this.
^^Our little table.
^^She kind of liked mashed potatoes and butternut squash.
^^I was soo full.
^^And Amélie passed out after the meal.
^^Then I made turkey everything the next day - stock, soup and salad.
I can't wait until Amélie is old enough to understand holidays and how excited I am about Thanksgiving each year. It will be so nice to have her help me in the kitchen each year just like I did with my mom. For now, she sits in her high chair and takes it all in :)
