In time-honoured tradition, I held a traditional American Thanksgiving celebration for my friends here in Canterbury. I enjoy the celebration, and it confuses the heck out of my foreign friends, which gives a certain satisfaction of its own. 😉

For those of you keeping track, the menu this year was:

• Roasted turkey stuffed with orange & onion
• Wild rice stuffing with cherries, cranberries, apricots, sultanas, pecans, and onions
• Baked sweet potatoes
• Roasted carrots and parsnips with a honey & cinnamon glaze
• Buttered green beans & corn
• Apple pie

My guests embraced the occasion. We at until we could barely move, and stayed up talking until nearly 2am. Or ‘midnight’, if you’re using Julien’s sense of time.

Peace and quiet at last…
