Thanksgiving 2015

For the first time ever, Zach is skipping Thanksgiving with his extended family to spend it at home with just me (and the baby!)

The midwives and doctors have all ordered for me to be on strict bed rest this week. We are unable to travel to be with family, but Zach is still taking the time to cook up a big holiday meal. He is roasting a beautiful turkey breast, pickling beets, making me some iron-rich sautéed spinach, and some fried polenta. I made butternut squash soup with cranberry beans and baked us two pumpkin custards with homemade whipped cream. We also have some yummy oyster dressing my father-in-law made us. I hate that we don't get to be with the rest of the family today, but I am happy we'll not have to miss out on a delicious home cooked meal.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates!
