How To Turn A Lonely Thanksgiving Into A Special Treat, Just For You!
Everybody loves Thanksgiving, right? What’s not to love about an annual gathering of family and friends, to celebrate all they are thankful for, before devouring a veritable feast, then entering tryptophan-induced comas and snoring in front of the TV as they sleep their way through the college football games? Sound like your type of Thanksgiving?
I often spend the holidays alone. There are a lot of us who do, either by choice or happenstance. To me, they are just like any other day. I don’t usually cook myself a big Thanksgiving feast, because it seems like a huge waste of time, effort and ingredients just to feed myself, and then have to deal with leftovers for weeks, or freeze everything that can be frozen. But when I found Ingrid’s incredible recipe for Orange-Honey Glazed Turkey Breast, I knew I had to try it.
Speaking of freezing things, I once asked my best friend if I could freeze milk. She gave me her now infamous (in our circles, anyway) response, “Girl, if they can freeze Walt Disney, you can freeze milk.” It very rapidly became a standing joke with us, and I would call her up out of the blue and ask her if I could freeze some particular ingredient or entire dish. That was over 30 years ago, and it still makes me laugh today!
