I know I am late with a response, but I wanted to tell everyoe (especially EB’s family) that this was one of our best Thanksgivings ever. It is our tradition to make every single person at the table(s) tell the whole crowd what they are thankful for. This year we really had a lot to talk about. We are a lucky family!

And naturally, Daddy Salmon’s wild addition to the meal was simply wonderful!

I liked the taste of the wild turkey. It had a really Earthy and down-home taste to it. And yes, I did feel like a pilgrim!

Our feast didn’t end with the three turkeys. What ML left out were the four tarts she and I made (pear, apple,blueberry and cranberry), two pie (pecan, and pumpkin), delicious sweet potatoes, beautifully prepared asparagus bunches held together by carrot rings, multiple kinds of stuffing, orange cranberry relish, and plenty of good wine and champagne.

I’m getting full again just thinking about it!

We were so glad to have you Tofutti! Empanada Boy and I were just talking about how glad we were that you and Popover seemed to get along so well with my crazy, but loveable family. I hope things are nice back in sunny Tucson!

As for you, Auntie Pasti, I miss the days of celebrating Thanksgiving with you in NYC. It’s nice to be with everyone in Portland, but I’ll never forget the fun we had brining the turkey in the bathtub.

Being a lover of wild game, I thought Daddy Salmon’s catch was the best! The meal, prepared by multiple chefs, truly represented the bounty of the harvest. The only thing better than the dinner was the company. I am still relishing the memories of it all!

I hope you were thankful for your dad’s dominant left eye. Between your parents’ hunting and foraging and your preparation and photography, you got the whole food process covered. That wild turkey looks great.
