Well, Happy Thanksgiving to all you Yanks out there. Not celebrating here, though my one concession is that I'm doing a pumpkin pie for dessert for friends who are coming to dinner on the weekend. They aren't American, but when Caroline and I were talking about what we'd eat, it occurred to me that pumpkin pie was both easy and seasonal. Not to mention yummy - it's probably my favourite part of the meal, anyway. I'm not a huge turkey fan, so it's mostly the trimmings I miss. Lots of people in the UK do turkey for Christmas, but we all prefer roast beef. With all the trimmings that entails (Yorkshire pudding - yum!)
