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!
