Thanksgiving Dinner

For Thanksgiving this year we went to my cousin Rita’s house.  They decided to make a fried turkey this year which my cousin Bruce and my cousin’s fiance John were going to make. The first thing they did was get a big pot and put peanut oil in it. They were outside and it is important to be outside to make sure there are no fires.  I was excited and nervous when they were making it because it could have blown up, and trust me, I did not want that to happen.  Luckily, it did not blow up. After they got the oil boiling, they lowered the turkey into the pot, and then they had to wait for the turkey to be done.  In the meantime, my cousin Rita was making her special sweet potato fluff.  When you bite into the fluff it is the taste of heaven and coming from me that is especially good since I’m not a huge fan of sweet potatoes. First, you peel the sweet potatoes, and then you boil them until they are soft.  Then you've got to mash them up so they are soft, but not liquidy. Then what you will find below is the topping to this heavenly dish. This dish was so good that I learned how to make it the next night for my family. I got permission from my cousin Rita to post this recipe for you all to make next year for Thanksgiving. The recipe is down below if you would like to use it.

There were a couple of other side dishes we had, I had the green beans, mashed potatoes, and fluff.  The green beans were, so delicious, because they had this little bit of spice to them which made them irresistible I had at least five helpings of it.  It was the spice that was, so good that explains all of the string beans I had.  Next, was the potatoes, they were the creamiest mashed potatoes ever which was why I loved them the creamier the better for me.  The only other thing that I had was the fried turkey which was off the hook good. It was so crispy and oily (in a good way). Yummy!  Overall it was a delicious meal, and I really want to come back to Thanksgiving at their house next year again.
