thanksgiving is pretty much the definition of gluttony and excess and you've all been glutton-yed and excessed to death, so i'm going to keep it simple. pictures and links... only two of the recipes i made were at all original (and i'm guessing you could find them elsewhere on the web, its just that i, personally, got them from family members and not foodnetwork.com or cooks.com or some other site...) so i'll spare you the reprinting of the instructions and instead, just provide the links...
our day started off with what was really my favorite part of the day - spiked lattes...
ingredients:
one mocha latte
and a nice bottle of Peppermint Schnapps
tastes just like a peppermint mocha, and makes the crowds at the thanksgiving day parade significantly less annoying...
anyhoo... after our schnappsing was over and the parade was no more, it was time to head home... for wine and cheese, cheese, cheese...
close ups from the above appetizer table...
Cheese & Crackers
whole foods entertaining cracker assortment, smoked vermont cheddar, NY state cheddar and montery jack. served on my only 'festive' platter...
next up - dinner.
*if you didnt note the heavy sarcasm in that first line, you really might as well not read my blog at all, cause it will be lost on you entirely too often...
