It's a little bit late, but I wanted to share some photos from Thanksgiving and say how grateful I am to have had the time to spend with my family. At the end of the day, I know that what I am most grateful for are a supportive family, a loving husband, and the time I get to spend with them. But I'm also grateful for good food. It's a close second :) And nothing is better than Mom's cooking.
Amazing vegetables - Green beans sauteed with garlic (and butter of course!) and Asparagus lightly sprinkled with salt and sugar. Unusual, but it's fantastic!
Roasted potatoes, sweet potatoes, and yams.
Fruit salad, Cucumbers and tomatoes with vinegar.
And not your traditional Thanksgiving meat, but since my Dad's from New Zealand, we grew up eating lamb with mint sauce for our fancy dinners and he was happy to cook it for us while everyone was in town. It took a few hours to drive around and actually find a store selling it, but definitely worth it.
Happy (Belated) Thanksgiving, and Merry Christmas!
