We had a tremendous Thanksgiving this year. We started the day with pastry and the Thanksgiving Day Parade. The parade was pretty poor - too much promotion, not enough parade. Then to church for Morning Prayer, and back home to get dinner ready.
The turkey was started the night before. We brined the turkey using a recipe from the Food Network. Alton Brown is one of our favorites, and this recipe produced a moist, flavorful turkey. The juices were used for a wonderful gravy.
The family came over, and we had a wonderful time. Lots to be thankful for.
For those student wondering how Thanksgiving began, they can read the original proclamation here. In fact, for American history, the entire site is worth the time spent.
