This weekend is when Canadians celebrate their Thanksgiving - Monday is the actual Thanksgiving Day - so I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving, no matter what part of the world you are living in or serving in. We have SO much to be thankful for every day, in this country! A special thank you to everyone who has been helping to make this pandemic more bearable for the rest of us, especially those involved in Health Care, risking your own health and lives and making so many sacrifices for the rest of us. Endless others who provide us with things like food. I could go on and on and on .... Have a happy, SAFE time, everyone!
This photo shows the Thanksgiving meal that I ordered from Forage Foods in Calgary. Their food is SO good, all made from produce from local farms. During the pandemic, it has been even more important to support small businesses, and this is one of the ones that I enjoy supporting. The maple mustard roasted squash and the herb buttered vegetables were delicious along with the mashed potatoes, stuffing and turkey. It also came with a salad.
Leftovers from a fabulous Sunday dinner.

Oh the hardship of trying to finish off the 365 treasure hunt ... I had to have pie and mash for lunch, just so I could tick off number 49, Pie :)))
It was a Sainsbury's Taste the Difference Chicken and Ham Hock Pie, and rather nice ... also with some roasted carrots and parsnips and green beans, just in case you hadn't spotted them :))
My photos, but the food was prepared by my friend's son.

This kind of pot is traditionally used for cooking cheese fondue. I use it for anything that can be put into a pot and baked in the oven.
I have given up on cheese fondue long ago after long-suffering indigestion after every cheese fondue meal. White wine and a shot of Kirsch to help digestion is usually being served with cheese fondue, but it doesn't do anything to aid digestion.

I don't boil potatoes in water. I think they lose flavour and texture and some go gooey when boiled in water. Instead, I steam potatoes and cauliflower in the same steamer basket, then mash them together with a little of the water left in the pan and a dash of soy milk. This makes a nice, light, and tasty mash.
Season with salt, pepper and a little nutmeg.
Vegetarians may grate some cheese over the mash before baking.
I should have used the tripod :-/

Macro-Mondays-Main Meal
Last summer Stu planted red, white and blue potatoes in the garden. Today, Sunday, which is my day to cook up a storm, I used up all the deep blue potatoes and this is why they appear to be a little on the purplish side. I put some Vegan Butter, Swiss Cheese and a little unsweetened Hazelnut Milk in them. I also made Baked Beans, Liver & Onions. I made a light Gravy for it all as well. All was made from Scratch! Now I can take a break from cooking for a few days!
2nd April 2018:
... Finally, eaten this evening.
We finally got around to having our Easter Sunday lunch, but not at lunchtime. We waited until this evening. At least we had it.
Roast chicken, with a roasted onion served with mashed potatoes and cauliflower cheese. Had we not been quite so hungry I would have finished the cauliflower off under the grill, to brown the cheese, but we couldn't wait!
I really must clear the table, sorry about the mess again ... and I must try harder at my food photography.
It's also World Autism Awareness Day.
Maybe better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
Just wanted to say thanks to you all. Love you bunches.
I dreamed of all you guys a long time before I even knew who you were. I always hoped to have an audience to speak to, so I decided to start a 365 in August to make some new friends. However, by the end of September I was really starting to feel sad, because I had no one commenting on my pictures..... then came October, and I got randomly in a week all these new buddies =) Now I am pyched to impress you all with a new photo everyday, and I hope you like them. I'm sorry they are sort of inconsistent in theme though. I go from happy to sad, from scary to innocent in an instant which throws off people... But anyways, LOVE YOU ALL, and I try to do my best to comment on your streams as well, sometimes I sit here for two hours and feel like a dork commenting that long, but it's fun!
