Countdown to Thanksgiving

[Guest guest]

OK everyone, those of you who are in the USA (or of the USA) and celebrate

Thanksgiving

now have that day creeping up on you bigtime. What plans do you have? Quiet, at

home, at

the home of family/friends, big party, small party, just the two of you

('honeymoon

Thanksgiving' ) or what?

 

As you know, those of us in Canada (or of/from Canada) celebrated ours last

month, but

there are no rules against double dipping. I'm not sure what we'll have in

honour of our

American friends and family members there, but we will observe the day one way

or

another. I had thought of a homemade stuffed gluten 'turkey' (using yuba for

'skin') but it

seems a bit much to contemplate right now with only three days to go LOL Maybe

just the

gluten roast and some lovely bread/nut dressing/wouldbestuffing. Cranberries,

sweet

potatoes, etc., of course. Although I must confess my dh is lobbying for an

enormous

lasagna LOL We'll see!

 

So what's on the agenda and/or the menu for you guys???? Come on, tell all! (And

afterwards we can talk about how good it was or wasn't, if you like:))

 

Best, Pat

Well, my partner Kymberli & I are just having a small " just us " meal. Her

immediate family recently moved and the extended family hasn't offered an

invite, which is just as well as I look forward to creating our own traditions.

We picked up the latest Vegetarian Times since we has such good luck with

their Thanksgiving recipe last year. We are going to make the Harvest Pot Pie

with squash, green beans, onion, potatos, corn etc with a pastry crust. We are

also going to make a sage stuffing I've had my eye on for a while.

 

I will post pics to my blog....as usual with most of our meals.

I'm hoping this will be fun, my hubby and I will be having

Thanksgiving at the Earthlodge outside of Antigua in Guatemala. They

offer a Vegan option! I knew we had to stay with them when I read

that. We fly into Guatemala City tomorrow night and will arrive

Thanksgiving day. We hope to have 2 1/2 weeks of fun and adventure in

Guatemala. The food situation is always interesting while traveling

abroad. We know we'll be having a lot of beans(lard free I hope!!)

and rice. Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate it!

 

cheers,

Heidi from Whidbey Island
