Turkey Day Wrap Up

Thanksgiving was a huge success, and from what I hear from the rest of the family, was quite the party in North Carolina.

Over the last few weeks all of the foodie blogs have been posting tons of recipes - appetizers, how to brine your turkey, the perfect stuffing, etc.  Another things that seems to be synonymous with this holiday is that people tend to imbibe more than one or two adult beverages.  One of the things that caught my eye, was a recipe for Spiced Apple Cider Sangria.  If you are a lover of sangria and apple cider this is definitely one for you to try out!

The other new find of the day was a potato ricer

which made some mean mashed potatoes without knocking the kitchenaid mixer off its keel. 

While we did not have the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria bread boats at our table

there was definitely enough food to feed an army.  

I also went home with a boat load of left overs! 

 

One of my favorite things about Thanksgiving is all of the left overs, like Chinese food they always seem to be better the next day.  You get to make delicious Thanksgiving sandwiches like this one:

Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing all in one delicious bite!
