Sepanjang Cuti Thanksgiving & Hari Raya Haji

On Tuesday.. made Almond London cookies & fried some muruku..


On Wednesday, hunting for a turkey roaster oven. Found one at Target for only $22.

Now.. everything's ready.. hoorayy..

On Thursday, we didn't do anything much in the morning. All stores closed since it was Thanksgiving. So we just lepak2 at home and later went to the Asian stores to buy some groceries. (Apparently they didn't celebrate Thanksgiving).

Later at 3pm, Amin took out the turkey from the fridge. Guess whatt.... the turkey was still frozen macam batu :S We had to thaw the turkey in a bucket of water for 3 long hours.. It was quite frustrating because we stored the turkey in the fridge for 3 days already, and in a perfect world, the turkey should be ready to marinate when we took it out.

At 6pm, Amin was getting ready to cook the turkey. First, he rubbed it with butter & black pepper. Then into the roaster oven for 2+ hours.. In a meantime, I cooked the bread stuffing and mashed potatoes & gravy.

Irfan.. while waiting for the turkey to cook :D

Turkey done and we were ready to eat!

The turkey was a bit dry but very delicious. It was Janet & Ifran's first time eating turkey. It tasted exactly like chicken but with its own flavor. We are looking forward to cook it again next year :)
