Joint effort by Michelle and Russ gave a lovely herbal tasting bird, which was basted every half hour. I wonder if that’s why the white meat was mostly done, but not the dark meat, even though the thermometer reading said it was done. Thank heaven for a microwave to finish the dark meat pieces.
Caroline had a great dressing recipe with leaks and celery…and big chunks of hard bread…it came out great…lots of broth softened it down, and the veggies were reduced to just flavors.
Kate was the Mac and Cheese Mage.
Audrey was the Green Bean Queen!
We even came up with titles for our contributions!
Dad was already the Fire Maker.
Michelle was the Turkey Queen
And I was the Gravy Matron.
My first serving included everything mentioned before with sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, and sweet potato rolls, and cranberry sauce - below.
The pumpkin caramel pie was somewhat sweet and may need some tweaking.
The best part of the day was being with my family!
