{the gift that I made for the hostesses}This year wasn't a traditional Thanksgiving. I went to a friends house where he made an injected deep fried turkey, and she made a couple of side dishes. It wasn't the usual Thanksgiving that I am use to, but it was a lot of fun.

Yum, I think I'm still in a food coma from my own Thanksgiving feast! I've never had deep fried turkey, but I'm sure it's delicious. Just like everything else deep fried in this world! XO

I've never had a deep fried turkey, but it looks good! It might not have been a traditional Thanksgiving meal, but all the food looked good!
ReplyDeleteI love pumpkin rolls! (and I am from TX) :) There was a great place to buy them in San Antonio and I miss that so much.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you had a good Thanksgiving with friends.

It all looks yummy and you look like you had some great portion control going on. :)
ReplyDeletein regards to your WW question...the new calculation involves four things...carbs, total fat, protein, and fiber...I heard the formula is secretly guarded or something...lol Etools is allowing you to calculate starting today. I haven't gotten any of the written material yet, as my weekly meeting is tomorrow!
That turkey looks SO SO GOOD. I've always wanted to try the deep fry thing! And your pumpkin roll - now THAT caught my eye right away. YUMMY!!
