There is no place like kitchen

Adapted from 2005 Farmers' Almanac. Very fall color and taste. Good with quiche or savory buns.

Ok, I love traditions but bake one of them 3-5 hours is not easy. But Thanksgiving is a day of family gatherings. And Turkey Day.

So, these are my main dishes. In 2005, it was a “young turkey breast” from PathMark. It was my first Thanksgiving turkey and I was very proud.

In 2006, it was a turkey with stuffing, which (stuffing, not turkey) we didn’t like. Since then I have not stuffed turkey.

In 2007, I cooked bird in traditional style – rosemary,  sage, black pepper and butter.

In 2008, it was a juicy turkey with cider glaze. And I finally decorated it.

This year I would like to try Roast Turkey with Wild Mushroom Gravy. Or something else. My in-lows are a little bit conservative about food, so I try not to  experiment much.
