My daughter L is home for the long Thanksgiving weekend. We hadn't seen her for all of September! I have a small (10 pound) turkey thawing in the refrigerator. It should be ready for roasting tomorrow!
I cooked a whole chicken in my new crockpot this week. It was so flavourful after 5 hours on the high setting. I roasted some brussels sprouts and celery to go with the dish. We are having a large e-coli recall of beef products in Canada unfortunately. I've just happened to be staying away from beef. Apparently it's ok if you ensure your beef is very well cooked and I know K has been buying beef burgers. I just don't like the part where they say you wouldn't show symptoms of the illness until 4 to 10 days after you've eaten the contaminated beef.
Here is a dairy free meat free gravy called 'groovy gravy' to try.

Our Thanksgiving party will happen one week after we return from India next month. It will be hectic. Wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!!! Cute cartoon!
ReplyDeleteThanks Gigi
DeleteGreat joke! There are always scares here about things we should not buy or eat, very unsettling, and thousands of school kids got ill last week with food poisoning from school food they had eaten. Valerie
ReplyDeleteValerie, that's awful!
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you, and have a fun visit with your daughter!

ReplyDeleteHa! I know the feeling of the grumpy Dad in the cartoon-- Been there, done that.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of my slow cooker and I'm glad the weather is finally cooling off to make and enjoy more soups and stews.
Enjoy your turkey!

How funny! As a matter of fact, we did just buy an iPad for our son for his graduation this summer. He's loving it!
ReplyDeleteI STILL haven't done a crock pot recipe. I really need to get some courage to do it.
