My greatest German success thus far was ordering a 16-pound (8 kilo) fresh turkey from the butcher. Even though the German freezer cases were willed this frozen turkeys I have to order a fresh one because there was no way I could put a turkey in my mini fridge. (It's smaller than the average dorm fridge in the US.)Once home, the next challenge was getting that bad boy to fit into my mini oven. It just fit – but part for the drums sticks cooked to the side of the oven and I have to truss the bird up as tight as possible.
In the end though I was delicious! In addition to the turkey I made all of the fixin's: sweet potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and apple and pumpkin pie. We invited Kevin's office and all of the Americans at the Goethe Institute (three). I think everyone enjoyed their first Thanksgiving.
