I have my family Thanksgiving gathering coming up next month and I dread sitting around the dead carcass. Your chickpea tart looks amazing and I think I'll bring that as an alternative this year :)Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139052188829414199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-84818562800972995502009-10-13T06:38:52.979-07:002009-10-13T06:38:52.979-07:00aw, thanks taleoftwovegans! And I agree about Tha...aw, thanks taleoftwovegans! And I agree about Thanksgiving - growing up I remember very little about Thanksgiving, I think we've only caught on to Thanksgiving in the last 10 yrs or so in Canada, following US customs I believe... still, it gave us a reason to plan a dinner with my sister and her family, and that's always fun!<br /><br />Thanks Lisa... hope you had a lovely weekend too!<br /><br />Aimee, I've never tried whole truffles - I'd love to. I adore truffle oil, though it was repulsive to me while pregnant - but then, many things were!!<br /><br />Colleen, wow, pretty good that your family made that many vegan dishes for you - and did their best not to focus on the turkey. We haven't had that experience for many years now (having to share a holiday meal with others that are eating turkey), would be odd for us to do so now. Anyhow, thanks for the note... I love the Celestial Cream too - and haven't made it in a while... hmmm, it's been too long actually. ;)<br /><br />Thanks Kara! Our "dressing" is very traditional from growing up in Newfoundland - made with breadcrumbs and is seasoned (quite a lot) with dried savory... I will always say dressing I think, no matter how long I'm around others that say stuffing. (and it sounds much more appetizing!)Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-3884871752912198022009-10-12T07:23:21.837-07:002009-10-12T07:23:21.837-07:00Great post, Dreena.

P.S. - Here in Louisiana we say dressing, too. Except ours is made with cornbread.

But they made about 5 different vegan dishes for us and kept the dead bird sort of hidden. Also, as I posted to you on the Facebook, they loved the pumpkin cheese pie - with the celestial cream. Really, I could eat that celestial cream with a spoon.Bookphiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155882653615842141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-92138886889291860632009-10-11T12:57:53.805-07:002009-10-11T12:57:53.805-07:00Thanks so much for the recipe, Dreena.

I can't wait to try this!aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15915470244671384660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-10497590432732951732009-10-10T19:11:06.353-07:002009-10-10T19:11:06.353-07:00Happy Thanksgiving Dreena.

I'm not doing anything for thanksgiving this year (am I the only one that thinks it's a pretty arbitrary seeming holiday?), but I'm totally chowing down on as much squash/chestnuts/cranberries as I can before the 'season' is up! :) -EveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
