Our Tuscan Thanksgiving: The Feast

Armed with two (although we actually used only one) tiny kitchens in our respective villas, we managed to pull-off a delicious American Thanksgiving meal!

Here's the full spread:

Erin's phenomenal stuffing:


My (and by "my" I mean Emeril's) bacon braised green beans:

B's roasted garlic mashed potatoes:

My classic cranberry compote:

Erin's fabulous roasted turkey (this was the juiciest bird we'd ever had...the secret is a roaster...you can see in the picture the meat is so tender it's falling right off of the bone!):


And last, but certainly not least, Andrew's pumpkin pie with buttered walnut topping:


Not only was there food, but there was fun, too!
Erin found a cute turkey-making kit and brought it along to feed our creative hunger:

We had an awesome time sharing our Thanksgiving feast with the Baughmans!
