This past weekend, Blake and I were invited to the home of our friends Jason and Paul to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving. Like us Americans, Canadians like to celebrate their holiday with a BIG turkey dinner and all the fixins. Unfortunately, the grocery people forgot to deliver Jason's turkey so we had roast chicken instead. By the way, the chicken was fantastic and, P.S., Jason called the grocery and cried so they gave him all his other groceries free. It was truly something to celebrate!

I figured I would bring a little bit of home to dinner with me so I made my famous sweet potato casserole. It was a hit! Besides the chicken and sweet potatoes, Jason served butternut squash soup, mashed potatoes, braised celery, asparagus, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. Jason also made what I think was apple flan. Whatever it was it was delicious. I really had to resist a second helping.
Kings Cross Steelers Press Officer Allison and her partner joined us for dinner. It was very nice to be able to meet Izzie and get to know Allison a little better. It was an evening of good food and great people ... and maybe a little liquor. :)
