The Cranberry Salad goes with dinner?!

So I had Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday...it was delicious! Glad I made Cranberry Salad as it was a novelty for all but the 3 of us Americans that were there! They were all amazed that we eat dessert salads with dinner and amazed that it went so well with the dinner! Originally I had wanted to make Pistachio Salad but they don't have Pistachio pudding mix here...nor do they have Cool Whip so I had to make my own whipped cream. I am disappointed to say I didn't get any turkey...turkey farms aren't allowed here 'cause they are soo terrible for the environment, thus turkeys are very expensive! We did have a huge roasted chicken so at least we ate bird!

I managed my way driving around town all weekend! I drove De to the airport on friday, shopping and dinner on saturday and a wedding reception on sunday. I only made a couple of wrong turns...the wrong exit in a round-a-bout and often street signs are missing so you have to guess whether or not it's the turn you want! I'm feeling surprisingly comfortable on the right side of the vehicle and the left side of the road though...no mistakes as far as that goes...yet anyway.

You know, I don't think I've ever had cranberry salad.
