It's possible to have an All-American Thanksgiving in Spain with a little planning and a lot of preparation! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings. It was so much fun to be in Madrid with Brett and Amy and the kids. We didn't think we would have a turkey but Amy found one the day before in the grocery store. It was a little pricey-35 Euros ($1.50 for each Euro) but it was delicious and we had plenty left over for those great turkey sandwiches. Amy made sure we had our "sparkling cider". She mixed apple juice and Sprite and it tasted great. We had deep dish apple pie and pumpkin pie. Fortunately, for us, Brett and Amy's next door neighbor, Cheryl, was on vacation so we used her oven to help get everything cooked at the same time. It was such a special time to reflect on how blessed we truly are.

MMM... that looks so delicious. And looks like it smells good too. But not as good as the Spanish laundry I have going on downstairs.
