Thanksgiving 2013 – Canadian
Thanksgiving occurs on two different dates, depending on whether you are in Canada or the US. Canadian Thanksgiving comes first due to the simple fact that fall comes earlier to Canada.
Every year I have attempted to celebrate both holidays, for remembrance and to be able to have a reason to have two festivals of scrumptious meals. My favorite dessert became, over the years, a pumpkin pecan pie with chocolate drizzle and topped with coffee Hagan Daz ice cream. Ummm…
I made this pie for my family and friends in Raleigh, NC to celebrate my Canadian heritage Thanksgiving, October 14, 2013.
Blowing Rock, NC
There are some dining experiences that are better than others. Here is one of the best. My sister invited me to take part in a pilgrimage to see Mother Mira. We stayed in a very quaint town of Blowing Rock, NC. While there we discovered by accident this restaurant: Crippens. www.crippens.com. The menu for Sunday May 13 2012 totally inebriated my palate and gave me a recipe that I went on to create at home. The Bittersweet Chocolate Infused Espresso Crusted Beef Tenderloin was to absolutely live for. I searched high and low for the recipe, but to no avail, so I created the best I could and it was delicious. I would disclose the secret, but then I would have to silence you,
smiles.
