Giulia, how is it that you, an Italian, can write so beautifully and expressively in English?! I so enjoy your writing, and hope that someday you can indeed experience a true American Thanksgiving. Ironically our gathering of family and friends around the table on that day reminds me greatly of the gathering of family and friends around the table that I’ve seen every Saturday and Sunday when I’m in Italy!

I always vary my menu at Thanksgiving- Before retiring, Thursday was usually a workday for me, getting home after 7pm, so a complete traditional dinner was impossible. From a Chinese friend I learned how to steam a bird before roasting, which cuts the cooking time in half and leaves the meat juicy. But the 2 mainstays are always stuffing made with chestnuts & apples and herbs and pumpkin cheesecake.
