The Official Feast

We did get our Thanksgiving feast a couple of days later.
Some friends invited us to their home along with another Taiwanese family who had never had a Thanksgivign meal before. We did our best to make it as authentic as possible:

Luckily our friends found a seasonal service that offers fullly roasted turkeys (it's a rare thing to have an oven over here--we lucked out with our baby oven in our apartment). As with most poultry over here, this turkey kept his head through the whole ordeal. We didn't invite the head to the table, however. 

The foreign import store provided some familiar fixings for our olive/pickle tray.

And we weren't without deviled eggs, candied yams and greenbean casserol :) 

Our only disappointment was to find out the CostCo failed to supply their normal stock of pumpkin pie around Thanksgiving time this year. But complaining wouldn't be Thanksgiving-y, so I won't :)
