thanksgiving round 4


thanksgiving is the one day we tend to go all out with the food.
thought we'd do something a little differently this year:
-no turkey...instead a chicken pot pie
-prime rib (never had this at home ever)

on the menu:
-bread sticks
-stuffed mushrooms
-mac and cheese
-ham, prime rib
-chicken pot pie
-corn, salad
-mashed potato, green bean casserole
-stuffing
-dessert: caramel apple 


bread sticks: used puff pastry dough, cut in half, brushed with egg wash, added cheese herbs, put other half on top, cut twist bake.
stuffed mushrooms: stuffed with cheese, shallots, garlic, bread crumbs




single serving chicken pot pie.


bacon mac and cheese




dessert:
-tastes like a personal apple pie. with caramel sauce.


hope everyone had  a wonderful thanksgiving week!!

thanksgiving round 1

if you havent heard yet, thanksgiving is my favorite time of year.
its the one and only time when my family (of 5) eat american food (no kimchi, no rice).
its the one time we buy a full turkey, spiral sliced honey glazed ham, couple sides, and of course dessert.
(mouth is watering as i think about it).

this year, i think we're going to change it up.
i'm thinking of not having the actual whole turkey, but instead maybe a pot pie.
i think it might be a nice change....we are going to be having prime rib and ham so why not...
but i must get the approval from everyone in the family first.

my thanksgiving dinner feasts started last friday.
2 community groups from church gathered for a thanksgiving feast.
 i'm not entirely sure why, but i love this picture.










i normally dont add people onto my entries, but i think i'm going to start trying....
majority of the people that night.
thank you sarah for opening your house, and everyone for coming (with amazing entrĂ©es)!!
all time favorite picture hahaa.
cant wait to take another picture with the entire community group.

stay tuned for my rounds 2-5 throughout this entire week!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING WEEK EVERYONE!!

~~snail mail giveaway~~

pomegranate season is here!!
or so i think...because i picked 4 off my baby pomegranate tree recently.
i tried a new method of peeling the seeds this year.
i cut the pom and i peeled everything inside a bowl with water in it.
made the entire procedure quick and stain free. yay!!.



people have been asking me if i could mail them baked goods....
i'm not entirely sure if it'd be possible or even if it'd be able to get to the final destination in one piece.
so i decided that i would give it a shot.

i decided that i'd pick one person at random using random.org.
the winner will receive a box of dessert (cookies or cake pops) via snail mail.
how to enter:
