ursamajor: the Swedish Chef, juggling (bork bork bork!)
This year's Asian American Thanksgiving bounty! We hosted my dad; my mom wasn't feeling so hot (digestively! otherwise fine).

What we made:

* Joanne Chang's Apple Cider Sticky Buns
* Serious Eats' Koji Prime Rib
* Kristina Cho's Pork Floss + Seaweed Pull-Apart Rolls
* The Woks of Life's Cheesy Scallion Mashed Potatoes
* Peter Som's Five Spice Sweet Potato Tian
* Betty Liu's Szechuan Dry Fried Green Beans, and also her Asian Pear Shrub + Rosemary Prosecco
* Kay Chun's Cranberry Asian Pear Chutney, which has graced my Thanksgiving table every year I’ve hosted since 2001, *even* the year we did takeout for everything else
* Nancy Cho + Selina Lee's Instant Pot Sujeonggwa, from their cookbook Korean Instant Pot Cookbook
* And finally, my biggest challenge and triumph this year: Alana Kysar's Liliko’i Chiffon Pie, from her cookbook Aloha Kitchen

There are pictures of the feast up on Instagram!

Also, thank you to Lactaid for allowing us to consume the amounts of dairy included in this meal even at our advanced age 😉

Concluding with a Liz Climo comic, because in her comics, I am clearly Bear and [personal profile] hyounpark is clearly Bunny, except for the few times we get flipped, like this:

Bunny asks Bear, did you bring the turkey?
