Thanks a Tanti!!


We celebrated our 7th Pecettese Thanksgiving this year with 58 friends. And thank goodness for friends, because it took many of them to pull off our tastiest Thanksgiving ever! It all began with a 20 kg Turkey from Bra (courtesy of the Pasta Fresca)....

....and 10 kg of potatoes, peeled by Valeria....

Tacchino the Turkey was gutted and stuffed by Federico and Mark....

and some extra help from Piera and Carmine....

Just fits!

The moment we've all been waiting for....

Even the kids are taking pictures with iphones these days....

Ella approves.

The kids table, trashed and abandoned....

due to balloon entertainment courtesy of Davide....

and drawing on the adults table is too much fun....

Sandra and company enjoying the bounty....

all good things end with sweets! Cannolli and Lemon Cake by Maria Luisa, Tiramisu by Valeria and Miska, Pumpkin Pie by Jiyon, Apple Pie by Bridget, Chocolate Pepper & Pear Cake by Elena, Streudal by Maria Chiara, and a Chocolate Salami (only in Italy) by Michela. Grazie mille Ragazze!!

.....also, not to be forgotten, some Pumpkin Pie Turkey Cupcakes. One tray vanished during the party....someone said Mariana was responsible.....the end.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
