Everything’s better in a shaila.
Thanksgiving this year was a little bit different than usual. It helped to pretend that it wasn’t really Thanksgiving… I was lucky enough to celebrate the holiday with four lovely friends.
Each of us chose a family recipe to share and naturally we ended up with way too much food! But it was good food…
Blair made a delicious pumpkin squash biscuit topper (thick soup) and pecan pie.
Frances made super yummy buttery biscuits, cranberry relish, and a cheese puff baked deal.
Trish whipped up very tasty mashed potatoes.
Molly assembled a vegetable spread and prepared tender green beans.
I provided Grandma Kessler’s wild rice stuffing (Guess how much wild rice costs in Abu Dhabi?! $10 for 1.5 cups, eek!) and Karen’s pomegranate salad.
It was a relaxing day and one I’m very thankful to have experienced.
