Our Thanksgiving was very mellow this year. Gabe and I decided to do the cooking and try out some new recipes I found in Parents Magazine. We cooked at my parents' house for about four hours on Wednesday, then came over early Thursday to finish up and enjoy the tasty results. Well, as it turns out, we should have had a double oven or a much smaller turkey in order to get everything cooked appropriately and on time. We ended up using the barbecue to roast the sweet potatoes and cook the stuffing (which didn't work out so well). We also discovered that our dessert was enjoyed by one of the furrier family members sometime in the middle of the night! The food turned out OK, but was nothing to write home about. Next year we will stick to our traditional, yummy, tastes-like-Thanksgiving's-supposed-to-taste, recipes!
