Turkey Day Festivities

HI  there! So it's Saturday right now and I was going to post these pictures yesterday on Friday but I had a busy day. I went Black Friday shopping a few hours after Thanksgiving dinner but didn't buy anything because it was too crazy there. Anyways, I had a pretty great Thanksgiving... I had dinner with the family and some family friends. And I ate a lot of  (good) food, which  always makes you feel happy!

Our table setting for Thanksgiving...

 

Appetizers! We had different cheeses, salami, fruits, and crackers laid out.

 

Our ham, which we baked with pineapples and rosemary and thyme..

                                           Baked sweet potatoes seasoned with different herbs.

                                          My dad carving the turkey, which was new to him. :)

                    All the food laid out and ready! Some food dishes not pictured that we had were potato gratin, ratatouille, and the apple cider. For the apple cider, which was from Trader Joe's, we cooked it with spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice for a nice warm drink.

                                        For dessert we had: key lime pie, apple cake, and pears.

So we had very diverse food this Thanksgiving, we had the ratatouille and potato gratin from my parents friends who are from France, and apple cake from my parents Italian friends. Probably the most interesting and the best Thanksgiving I've had! How was your Thanksgiving? Comment below!
