Thanksgiving!

We had a great Thanksgiving this year! We hosted it at our place for the first time. It was a potluck dinner, and everyone brought a lot of yummy dishes. We ended up with about 20 people in our tiny townhome. We all somehow fit inside and everyone had a place to sit.


We had a fried turkey and it was very good! I'm not a huge turkey fan becaues it usually always ends up being so dry. But after having my first taste of a fried turkey, I'm not sure if I would want a regular turkey again. This was soo moist! We had such a variety of food. We had a fried turkey, ham, duck w/orange glaze, homemade stuffing, mashed potatoes & gravy, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, sweet potato souffle, stuffed pasta (not sure of the exact name, but very good), veggie tray, cheesy crab dip, fried meatballs, and of course dinner rolls. I think that's it, but I'm probably leaving off something. We also had tons of desserts!


Here are some pics from the day... The others are posted on webshots.


How many men does it take to carve a turkey???
