Thanksgiving-Birthday Dinner

Oof, our Thanksgiving/Birthday dinner was fabulous and we ate too much, in accordance with tradition! I only made the mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes from scratch - everything else was courtesy of M&S and Tesco.


The only marshmallows I could find were pink and white, which cracked me up. The cranberries were interesting - very tiny and delicious, but very sweet and with port wine. They put booze in everything here at the holidays! And the mashed potatoes came out great - I think it was the Cornish double cream! Ah, Thanksgiving, UK style. Note the "gravy boat" below - a Starbucks England mug.



Off to the Netherlands tomorrow (see below for details), which incidentally is where many of the pilgrims came from! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, everyone!
