Traditionally it's not in our culture to celebrate Thanksgiving. But this year, as newlyweds, we did something different and invited 4 friends over for a Thanksgiving dinner. Courtesy of Echelon Foods, we received one of their Bacon Wrapped Turducken Premium Roasts. It's a turducken roast with Italian sausage stuffing and wrapped with bacon. A 3kg meaty goodness. It's going to be an epic dinner!

I was very impressed by how easy the recipe was, and for making it for the first time, how great the scones turned out. This will be a good recipe to prepare ahead of time and just finish it off in the morning after recovering from all the champagne and drinks!

Is it a holiday tradition at your home/party to pop open a bottle (or two, or more) of sparkly?

Last year, I made these sesame cookies; they were delicious and I love the Asian touch to it! We heard of the recipe on the radio and made some changes after we did a couple runs. Are you still doing some more holiday baking? Here is our recipe for you:
