Turkey! Turkey!



On Sunday October 12 we hosted a Canadian Thanksgiving.  Seventeen Canadians swapping stories of home was a great afternoon.   
I was able to locate a turkey for a mere 500 shillings per kg (about $3.50 per pound).  Unlike last year, I was prepared this year:  I brought a foil roasting pan and an oven bag from Canada and also summer savoury, poultry seasoning, napkins, decorations.  Last year's turkey took 9 hours to roast.  So this year, I roasted it the day before (in case there was no electricty on Sunday).  This year it only took 6 hours to roast and even smelled like a real turkey!  Others brought cranberry sauce, dressing, brocoli salad, sweet potatoe pie, chocolate pie, pumpkin cheescake, and enough mashed potatoes to sink a ship.


We are still full!
