Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!!

Just a few pictures from our Thanksgiving lunch!  I tried a new recipe for bacon wrapped Turkey with a special adobo seasoning mix (and made a few changes to the recipe myself too).  Everything came out really tasty, and I think we're going to be full for the next week and a half lol



Sweet Potato Balls stuffed with Marshmallows!

Roasted Vegetables 

Bacon wrapped Turkey (roasted over the vegetables)

Mixed herb salad with Pesto/Ginger/Lemon dressing

A full thanksgiving plate! Yum!

Pumpkin spiced cupcakes for dessert!! (We also had a pumkin pie)

Weekend of Food

Well it was pretty much a lost weekend - the diet & healthy eating went out the door! First it was crepes on friday, then I stuffed myself with pretzels on Saturday, and today we had thanksgiving dinner! Although I currently look like I'm pregnant, it was worth it - the food was delicious!










 (Forgot to take pics of the pumpkin pie - sorry! But it's the same pie recipe under the 'Recipes' tab)

 The weather was beautiful today too.  It was around 29 degrees, but felt like the 30's in the sun... it was like summer came back to visit for a while :D  So we took a walk, and ended up having a drink and snack at Second Cup - I had a croissant, and my sister had a raspberry cheesecake.






Right now, I am collapsed on the couch and watching Julie & Julia.... a movie about - you guessed it - Food!!
