Turkey Day 2010

Hello All,
These are some pictures from Thanksgiving this year. We had a small Thanksgiving dinner this year with just Tami, Jon and I. Also almost our entire meal was made in the toaster oven. Who said you need a full-size oven to make a whole Thanksgiving dinner. Here are some pictures.

My preparations for Thanksgiving dinner started on Tuesday night when I made pumpkin cupcakes with caramel cream cheese frosting. Then I drizzled them with more caramel. They are amazingly wonderful.

Jon spent the night since on Wednesday night we went to see the new Harry Potter movie. This is him trying to sleep in which is very hard when I'm awake.

Tami and I "trying" not to make too much noise but we were excited for Thanksgiving.

Had to start off the morning with Just Dance 2. It is sooooo much fun.

My Thanksgiving decorations.

Jon went and got breakfast, cinnamon rolls. Yeah he went and bought them but I still had to bake them.

Tami breaking up the bread for the stuffing.

Our lunch/snacks minus the bread crumbs.

Watching Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

The corn souffle is the first to be done.

Jon got nominated to help Tami make the stuffing. It was hilarious to watch especially since he wasn't really listening to her directions.

The turkey roasts are seasoned.

The stuffing baking away.

The turkey - rotisserie style. It smelled so good and tasted even better.

The finished product.

I'm cutting it up. You can see the steam...yummy.

The only thing that I got hurt doing was peeling the potatoes for the mashed potatoes. The peeler gave my a blister on my thumb. Oh yes, and with this we had flying potatoes because they were slippery so they would shoot out of my hand and across the room. It was quite funny. After watching the parade we watched all the Thanksgiving episodes of Friends then football.

Our dinner, just the 3 of us. It was perfect for us. Good times with good friends and good food.

This is what they did while I decorated. But this is usually what they do all the time while I'm doing other things. Hope you all had a wonderful turkey day. Sending you warm wishes and aloha kisses.
