Happy Thanksgiving, Canada!
Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holiday's. At home it's the promise of fall colours along the forest-lined DVP. It's my Nana singing along to Frank Sinatra while she cooks a turkey (and a ham and sometimes some sausages too, for good measure). It's poker and pass the ace with the Cosentino's after dinner. It's football played on the street, and on the TV.
Despite the fact that we moved to Australia, where there are no pilgrims, no Mayflower, and certainly no fall harvest, I declared early on that we would celebrate Thanksgiving, regardless. Even though substitutions had to be made (lamb for turkey, being the most critical) I'd still call it a success.
Here are some photos from Dave and I's Thanksgiving dinner:
