Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I always love Thanksgiving because I love being able to cook up a large variety of my vegetables all on one day for one meal.  For Thanksgiving I only cook up sides that contain my veggies.  The only thing that is not mine is the turkey.  So of course I had to take pictures of my Thanksgiving meal to share with everyone.

 Mashed Potatoes and Turnips

Turnip, Carrot, and Cabbage Slaw

Spaghetti Squash with garlic and butter

Sweet Corn

 

Dragon Tongue Beans

Pumpkin Bread Stuffing

Sweet Potato Cornbread

Salad with Lettuce, Kale and Mustard Greens.

Not the best picture of our turkey since my dad started cutting it before I got to take the picture, but I think it was a really good turkey.  I got the turkey from Plum Creek Farm in Valley City, and I will plan to get a turkey from them again next year.  Plum Creek Farm on Local Harvest

Our table decorated with gourds and winter squash.

The crazy thing is the turkey was done way earlier than I had expected so I did not get to cook up all the sides that I had intended to make.  I did not even get to use my beets and other winter squashes.  Oh well, for the four of us I think we had enough food.

I also forgot to take a picture but we also made some homemade pumpkin pie, made out of real pumpkin.
