thanks-dish
Thanksgiving is the only "non muslim" holiday my family actively participates in since me and my siblings were wee ones. well to be totally honest, halloween was kind of too. but now that i'm in college and whatnot its not really that serious. i usually just hand candy out.
well wait, actually we always make a cake and go see the fire works for 4th of July too. uhm mothers day and fathers day are really important to us too though.
WOW I DIGRESS.
Anyway, thanksgiving. A time of reverence and self-reflection. A time of giving and charity.
Food is basically what we focus on though.
Yes so this coming thanksgiving holiday we're making a Ha -uUUge dinner for friends and family. My older sister this time is putting everything together. I wish dad was here, even though he'll be here in mid december. I think he would've liked it. His job has him travelling a lot. over and out over and out . Ah well.
So anyway, I volunteered to make something too. I've decided I'm gonna make a really nice tres tres gourmet Bananas Foster. Oh don't worry it will be really chic. with the burnt sugar dome cone on top of the icecream and bananas, sort of a quasi-creme brulee.
I am gonna make everyone think I bought the dish from a gourmet ..uhm banana foster making factory?
yea. gourmet was the key word in that phrase.
I'm trying to find a pic of the style I'm going for. I mean I want these people to freak!
okay, lol. maybe i don't want them to freak. maybe thats not the term I was going for. but you know, you eat with your eyes first.
i really love food. good food.
okay here's a pic compilation:
uh huh. oh yea i went there.
My dish will be somewhere between, oh say a sort of love-child of this group above.
So i'll post pictures of it later when we have the party don't you worry :)
