We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. After compiling all of the ingredients necessary for an authentic American Thanksgiving meal, we spent the day cooking! In Hungary, whole turkeys can only be found in the stores at Christmas time, so we improvised and baked a beautiful turkey breast. More creativity came when making the yams...there are no yams here. So, we baked a fresh gourd and added the ingredients that would be in a yam casserole and we had a kinda-like-yam casserole....very delicious! We made a wonderful raspberry, apple salad, my Grandma's stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and a relish tray. For dessert we enjoyed apple strudel and pumpkin pie!! We enjoyed spending the day together cooking, and then a beautiful dinner as a family. Happy Thanksgiving from Hungary!
