Thanksgiving, Vegetables and Apple Pie

27 Nov

   HAPPY THANKSGIVING
to all my American family, friends and readers. I just love that a day is set aside for being together and for being grateful for the people in our lives, no presents involved just eating a feast together at the family table. We will be thinking of you all as we have our mini Thanksgiving tonight. All the recipes I am using are from my lovely Sister-in-law – apart from the Apple Pie of which more later.

2   Aren’t the colours of these vegetables, just ready to roast,and the herbs, so lovely and bright.

Chopped chives for the creamed onions dish
Glossy carrots and parsnips

3   I have made a very special Apple Pie today from a recipe I was given on our first visit to New York to visit my sister in 1981. It contains its own custard and is the best apple pie I have ever tasted. I’ll post the recipe soon and you really should try it!

Neighbourhood Party, Americana Apple Pie and a Little Streaker

18 Dec

1  Had a lovely time with lots of neighbours at a drinks and nibbles lunchtime party.

2  My sister, Daisy, emailed me for a recipe she had given me many years ago, Americana Apple Pie – a remarkable apple pie that contains a cream cheese custard as well as the apples.

3  We Skyped with KJ and the children this evening, just before going out to another party!  Tabitha recognised us and beamed. Jake, just out of the bath, streaked past many times at a rate of knots telling us all sorts of information as he appeared briefly on the screen, the most important being that he’ll be with us in two more sleeps!
