" Unseasonably warm last weekend of November "

We are still digesting Turkey dinner.

And to help it Jonathan & I decided to take a walk to the Village.

We could do it without winter coats.

It is very warm November weekend.

They are saying this is 3rd warmest November on record.

I'm so enjoying this weather !

I may do walking again to see colors on the street this afternoon.

Many trees in the city still have leaves with bright colors.

" Thanksgiving Dinner for Two "

A night before the turkey Day.

Jonathan baked a cake, I prepared a bread pudding to bake.

Since our main dish was Turkey Breast, I chose to make it instead of stuffing.

This recipe was given by the host of last years Thanksgiving Dinner Soiree. I was helping to make it in their kitchen a day before the party and it was delicious.

Since then I wanted to make it myself. It need to be prepared a day before, that means one less things to do in the following morning. It was a perfect choice.

I was thinking when was the last time we spent our Thanksgiving at home ?

We were at J & J's home every year for the past 15 to 20 years. Under the circumstance we are in this year, it was a necessary decision we all had to make. It is strange not seeing familiar faces there, but it was nice cozy supper just two of us...

The table is set.

Before the first soup course, we toasted with...

Kabocha-Squash Bisque

Spinach Apple Salad with Toasted-Pignolis

Herb Roasted Japanese Sweet Potatoes

Mushroom Brioche Pudding

Roasted Turkey Breast with Sage

Cranberry & Orange Relish and Gravy made the table complete.

Thanksgiving Dinner finished with Orange Almond Cake.

YES, we didn't finish !
We have plenty of leftovers for this weekend !!
