See, I've had a nassty head cold/sore throat/generally pukey existence for about a week now. It hasn't been fun.
Not even a little.
I promised you pictures, and now you may be sorry you asked....
See, I had like 15 that I wanted to post. I considered a collage, or doing it in parts, but I decided fuck it.
I did whittle it down a bit, though.
If this post's too long, well, tough tittie, as the kitty is reputed to have said.
Without further ado, I present Thanksgiving day in pictures:
The ever-present salami roll ups:

Spinach Dip:

Crackers:

The cheeses I spoke of:

Brussels Sprouts ala Strathman:

My Mom's Candied Yams:

The Main Attraction:

My 1st run at it:

The finishing touch:

Well, there you have it, Thanksgiving dinner in 8 pictures. I can assure you that it all tasted as good as it looked....
I'm full again just from posting about it.
Buenos con queso,

It all looks fab, but those brussels sprouts look de-lishus. I like that there is a high bacon-to-sprouts ratio present there. Yum.
That is one YUMMY looking bird. I had 3 baked & 1 fried one last week. Well, not like 4 whole birds... Anyways, I don't think I've ever had brussels sprouts. I have no idea how to cook them.
Brussels were the new "in" thing this year... everywhere I looked brussel sprout recipies. I wanted to try but Furry Husband is afraid of most green veggies and I couldn't talk him down.... maybe next year.
Cheers!
Whiskeymarie: Well, you of all people should know, it's all about the bacon. I used a half a pound to..I don't know how many sprouts, and a medium yellow onion.
Q: It's really easy. I can give you the recipe if you like. Let me know.
Shanster: Tell him it has bacon in it. Maybe that will sway him.
I have a hard time getting my youngest to eat different veggies, but she LOVES bacon, so maybe I should give this one a try!
Q: Bacon makes everything better.
