A belated happy Thanksgiving, Davy. Shall we say North Korea?

[davy51]

happy  thanksgiving to you to rik
Even though you dont really celebrate it

[Rik]

I'd be interested to know what a typical Thanksgiving menu is, Davy, compared to Christmas Day (when we mainly eat turkey).

[davy51]

For me Rik it usually is and most people do the same


Roasted turkey
Baked Ham(glazed)
Bread Stuffing( cornbread or white bread)
mashed potatoes
Turkey gravy
Sweet potatoes
peas
Green beans
jellied cranberry sauce

and for desert

Pies
Apple
pumpkin
blackberry
sweet potatoe pie
banana pudding


for Christmas I usually do about the same
Of course I live alone and mainly do it for my girfriend and a few of my family

Can we come, Dave?   

[Clive]

Sounds lovely Dave.  I'm very fond of sweet potato.   

[davy51]

Can we come, Dave?  

come ahead clive
of corse it will be cold leftovers by the time you get here  


I make a real butter sauce to top my sweet potatoes with a grand dish in itself

[Rik]

Do Americans not make roast potatoes as we do here, Dave, I've never seen them, it always seems to be mash.

[sam]

they do roast potatoes in Canada... but normally of the sweet potato kind.

For thanksgiving (US) last year we had curry, I was in Puerto Rico (which is of course a US territory) with astronomers - and astronomers love indian food.

As for Canadian thanksgiving this year (which is of course earlier):

Turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberries, veg and some cheese thing (which was made for me cause I don't eat the first thing on the list). Wa yummy.

You should pop round while you're home, Sam, I'm sure Sue could come up with something suitable.

[davy51]

we do roast or bake potatoes rik
I usually have one with a steak

I like mine with butter but many like them with sour cream and chices

Thanks, Dave, I just never seem to see them on US programmes featuring food, so I wondered if they were peculiar to us.
