Tina and I prepared a delicious, traditional, American Thanksgiving dinner today. We had turkey, dressing (which Joe and I brought from the States), AMAZING gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans (made with pancetta!), sweet potatoes with cranberry sauce, cranberry sauce, green peas and broccoli. For dessert, we had wonderful pumpkin pie and a raspberry pavlova that Nick's mom made. We polished Tina's grandmother's silver and we washed all her great-grandmother's plates so the table looked lovely. Nick's parents and their partners (English for significant others) came over and it was a very nice evening. Of course, I missed my Thanksgiving with my family but that just makes me look forward to spending Christmas with them even more!
