Wanting pho, but settled for shirataki (yam) noodles, BBQ duck, braised tendons, Romain lettuce, and pho fixings.
Not pho but just as satisfying :-)
.
.
Grilled burgers stuffed with Brie cheese.
Most of the cheese melted into the meat, so it was very moist.
Eaten with grilled peppers, onion slices, and the other usual garden stuff,
plus store-bought baked sweet potato fries with spicy ketsup.
.
.
Penne and 2 meat sauce: hot Italian sausage, beef meatballs, mushrooms, yellow peppers,
jalepeno peppers, onion, fresh thyme and oregano, in Hunt's thick pasta sauce.
Served over penne and spaghetti squash.
.
.
Lots of juicy sausage and meatballs.
The sprinkle of fresh oregano and thyme on top was great -
the heat of the sauce and pasta was sending up some heady aroma:-)
.
.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmussels!
Mussels steamed in delectable broth of coconut milk, lemongrass, coriander,
Spanish onion, garlic, ginger, Thai chili pepper, orange and lime zest
plus juice, kaffir lime leaves, and fresh cilantro.
Didn't need baguette to soak up the broth - just dipped it up with mussel shells!

Our first Thanksgiving with Ryan's parents, Dennis and Sharon McIntosh (Ryan took the photo)

The chops were done medium rare. They were tender and juicy!
