Thanksgiving dinner 2

Our guest of honor was Wonki Lee. Claire volunteers at the Mizzou Asian Center. Wonki is a university exchange student from Korea, and Claire's conversation partner. He has a delightful sense of humor and a misunderstood and under appreciated passion for both kimchi and green bean casserole.

Claire and Pat spent the entire day planning, shopping for and cooking Thanksgiving dinner number 2. The menu:
  • Roasted chicken
  • Leek and mushroom stuffing
  • Cardamom and pecan sweet mashed potatoes
  • Chicken and mushroom gravy
  • Green bean casserole
  • Cranberry and ginger chutney
  • Pumpkin pie
  • Apple cider
  • Green tea
It was a fabulous gourmet traditional feast. Oooh, I am stuffed again.
