turkey dilemma

November 16, 2005

thanksgiving is definitely a holiday to celebrate. traditionally, every year we would go to relatives’ homes and bring our portion of potluck recipes to share. but this year, since my mom has gone home to the philippines and our relatives will be out of town - we have decided to host our own little thanksgiving dinner at home with a few friends braving my cooking and some take-out delights to serve.

with a little over a week to prepare my menu, i have been envisioning in my head the ideal feast for us. i will be honest to say that i won’t be baking any bird but i am practical enough to order ahead our ham and turkey from our favorite chinese place, daniel wong’s kitchen, who year after year makes them for almost over a hundred families who won’t have time to bake it themselves - including us!

still, i have the sides to think about and the desserts to worry about. without my mom around, i am so challenged and determined to make this thanksgiving dinner a memorable one for us! i can’t wait to share how it will turn out to be! wish me luck!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!

  1. i’m sure your thanksgiving will turn out wonderfully! especially with such a gracious host like you! (i’m envisioning your soiree to be something out of In-Style!). try to make a homemade cheesecake –it’s very easy to do, not time consuming, and everyone will rave about it!

    HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

  2. Yes, InStyle parties came into my mind, too when you said you were hosting a party. I am sure it will be a wonderful party. Just remember, too, that the important thing is you are celebrating the holiday with your friends.

  5. Hi!

    I was surfing the internet and I noticed that you link to some of our online friend’s websites and I was hoping I could perhaps … bribe you to link to ours:).

    I work for Kultic.com and we would be forever grateful if we could work something out!
