This year we decided not to have the traditional turkey...why? Kasi we always end up having turkey sandwich, turkey salad or whatever turkey for a whole week (and to think hindi naman kami mahilig sa turkey). So this year we cooked our favs. I made the prime rib roast (picture is on the left beside Anton) the pork loin roast (on the right beside me) with caramelized apples and raisins and whipped mashed potatoes. Joy made lemon pepper salmon (infront of Jenny but you can't see it) and she brought meat and cheese platter too( right beside the fish). Jenny made prawns with lemon butter sauce (behind Jorell and Kevin) and she bought 2 pies from Marie Callendars. She also took care of our coffee, sodas, veggie and shrimp platter and many more. Janette made the Brazo de Mercedes (beside Janette) and she also made pasta with alfredo sauce (picture behind Carlos). The table pretty much had everything we wanted. I didn't even know what to eat first.
We said prayers before we started eating and we thanked God for having us share this special day with the people we love. I hope that we will be able to share days like these with people close to our hearts for years and years to come.
Happy Thanksgiving Day!
