One of my good friends, Alex, is an amazing cook. He's one of those brilliant minds who only puts effort toward the things he wants, and when he does, he absolutely kills it. Cooking is no exception.
He hosted a Friendsgiving (which is probably the best holiday) and I was lucky enough to be in attendance.
He made TWO turkeys - one oven-roasted and the other deep-fried. I had never had a deep-fried turkey before. Both were super tasty, but the deep-fried one was unreal.
I've only seen the fail videos on YouTube where the turkey like explodes. So, when I walked up to his porch and saw the turkey bubbling away, I was relieved to know it hadn't exploded.
The tables were all decked out with turkey tablecloths, plates, napkins and waiting for us were meat & cheese trays! Sara, Jeff, Anthony and I devoured these before dinner was ready.
Plus, there was punch, homemade pickles and more.
Stuffing is always one of my favorites. And this one is homemade. Honestly not sure if I've had homemade stuffing before.
Lil bit of mashed potatoes.
And some green beans.
Broccoli salad! We usually have broccoli and cheese in my house, but this was super good.
There was also salad, cranberries (one of my absolute favorites!) and so many good desserts, like apple pie and applesauce spice cake.
But pumpkin pie always has my heart.
