| Tew Thanksgiving Tarts? Heck Yeah! Even in Tralee! |
Ireland does not have a Thanksgiving Holiday. They were living their lives in Ireland, probably having little to be thankful for, when the Pilgrims did their big feast with the Native Americans, hence, no Thanksgiving Day celebration here. They are aware of our Thanksgiving tradition, so we got lots of Happy Thanksgiving wishes from our friends here. Plus, they decided to help us celebrate by having a Branch Thanksgiving Dinner activity.
I was probably busy trying to save the potatoes for the mashed potatoes from disintegrating while boiling (still trying to figure out Irish potatoes; where is a good batch of russet potatoes when one needs them?) so I missed getting a picture of the spread of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, and pies, but we had everything we needed for a proper Thanksgiving dinner. We even added a touch of the Irish by including mashed carrots and parsnips.
We had a good turn out and everything looked very nice.
