Early Thanksgiving at the Oswald's

The center of our Thanksgiving has traditionally been about the big bird on Dad's rotisserie. Tim did an amazing job, he kept the oak wood fire at the perfect low and slow temp. Dad was smiling down on Tim to let him know his first attempt was a great success. 


I carved the turkey and did a pretty good job of it.


Right smack in the middle of the kitchen is where to be during this time so you can score a taste of moist turkey (and skin) before it reaches the dining table.



The excuse for our early Thanksgiving was partially because Kaela and Joshua are visiting from Australia. Several family members wouldn't be in San Diego on traditional Thanksgiving day so we combined a welcome home with giving thanks..

Our family is a combination of carnivores, vegetarians, pescatarians, and vegans. Everyone brought a dish to share and the result was unique and delicious. What you don't see here are the 3 pumpkin pies, 1 pecan pie, 2 banoffee pies (a traditional British dessert), 2 pans of magic bars for dessert, and Ciscso's surprise German chocolate birthday cake from Meilu.
