Happy Thanksgiving

We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! We celebrated a bit here by making pumpkin pie bars, which were a big hit with Kristi's colleagues...especially since she also supplied whipped cream in a can ;) Although we didn't have a proper turkey for dinner (tonight was salmon on the grill - yum!), we did make an authentic New Zealand beer can chicken a couple of weeks back. As we learned from a guy working at Selini winery, the chicken is seated on a can of beer during cooking (as shown) to ensure the meat remains moist and tender. That's as close as either of us have ever come to roasting a turkey!
