Thanksgiving day is a big holiday for Canadians.Their traditional food on Thanksgiving Day is of course turkey,cranberry dressing and pumpkin pie.
Ashley,wants to eat turkey and celebrate Thanksgiving at home this year.You know kids always thought that it would be fun to have turkey for dinner.Actually,I don't think it's a good idea to have turkey for only few people but at last we decided to buy one anyway.
Last year I had my Thanksgiving dinner in mom in law house.It was only a simple Chinese dinner.However,this year I invite my mom in law and two sis in law to be guests at our table.As I said,I like baking and experimenting with new recipes,but not in cooking.So today was rocked!I got up at 9:00 so that I could cleaned house and bummed around for a while.It was a challenging day to me.If I was going to make this Thanksgiving dinner for someone I'd have to do some planning and it takes a long day to complete the mission.

Lets talk about Thanksgiving dinner photo!
The over baked Turkey :(
I use the Italian sausage,red pepper,parsley,bread cubes and carrot for the stuffing.The turkey was good I guess.It was not very dry and salty.Actually,I didn't prepare a lot of different kinds of foods.I'm thinking of just making a small turkey,coleslaw, gravy,sweet potato bun,stuffing,yellow rice with raisin and apple pie.
I have never made any of these things in my life so I'm nervous as all heck over here.I only have one oven and the turkey took 3 hours to cook so I can't bake the bun and apple pie on time.It screwed up my plan.oh ya!you know what I forgot to take out the coleslaw from the fridge for dinner.I only remember this after the meal LOL!!!
Hubby bought some sushi for the kids in case they don't like the food.It was just a simple dinner.The atmosphere was good and I am happy that the kids were happy to enjoy the turkey.
After the meal,we ate the Apple pie as the dessert.
This sweet potato bun is awesome.These buns are supposed to serve with the meal but too bad they only can try it after the meal.
There is definitely something to be said for getting together a bunch of people for a homemade meal regardless of whatever any of you can cook.The dinner was great though.Over all, this was a happy meal.
