Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all! I don’t understand why people in Greece do not celebrate Thanksgiving. I find Thanksgiving to be an amazing opportunity to celebrate and be thankful of what you have. I am thankful to have a wonderful family, two adorable kitties, the best husband in the world and really great friends. As Thanksgiving is not a holiday in Greece and had to spend much time working, I didn’t manage to create a really great Thanksgiving dinner. It was also just me and Sean so I preferred to spend more time with him instead of cooking for many hours.  Of course we did have dinner. And watched football. For dinner we had black bean cutlets, creamy mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, veggie pot pie,  a pretty green salad and easy chocolate peanut butter pie. I didn’t even think to take any pictures when I served the dinner, so all I have to share today is an after hours photo from our pie. Actually of what it was left…

chocolate peanut butter pie

This was made with graham crackers crust and chocolate peanut butter pudding filling. And it tasted great!
