So, Sunday dinner was delicious. I'm still so full I can hardly move.
The turkey turned out great--moist, delicious, falling off the bone. All the remains are in the stock pot simmering away for the night...think we'll have turkey pot pie later on in the week.
Here's my turkey secret: Rub the turkey with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, then place the pan inside paper grocery sacks, rub those down with oil, and clip it all shut. Bake it in the oven for the time shown for its weight on the package. That's it. Take it out when the buzzer rings, let it rest, and carve.
The sweet potato casserole that Bill made was INCREDIBLE. Oh yum. The recipe came from A Return to Sunday Dinner. A great cookbook if you're looking for Sunday dinner ideas.
And the black bottom banana cream pie...words can't quite express. My picture turned out blurry, so I'll take another photo when I have some for breakfast tomorrow! (That recipe came from A Return to Sunday Dinner too.) Oreo crust, chocolate custard, bananas, vanilla custard, whipped cream, chocolate shavings, more bananas. Need I say more?!
We sat around the table for hours after dinner, talking and laughing and having a ball. Just what Sunday dinner's supposed to be like...
Yummy. Looks so good. BTW... I love your dining room table. I like the idea of a bench for seating.
