Time flies! Seth and I've been married for only a year, but it feels like a decade. We celebrated our first wedding anniversary (November 16) at Bemelmans Bar at the Carlyle, which is famous for its murals by the artist for which the bar was named.
The celebration continues with Thanksgiving on the 'bush. I was nervous about making the Turkey this year, but, luckily, it turned out crispy and brown on the outside, juicy on the inside.
On the menu: honey brined turkey, green bean casserole, oyster dressing, cranberry dressing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, fruit salad, and Parker house rolls, with Kaori's enari sushi for appetizers and a spicy chocolate cake, Charlie's heavenly flan (Charlie, if you're reading this, I really, really want the recipe!!), and Bryan's pear pancake surprise.
Can you spot the surprise? Oops!
And good things come in threes--Happy Birthday Seth!
