El Día De Acción De Gracias x2 (Thanksgiving)

Although we missed our families back in the US, we once again had an excellent Thanksgiving in Spain. We ordered a Turkey from our favorite stands at the market, made stuffing from scratch, and baked an apple pie. We invited some friends over to join in the festivities and asked everyone to bring something to share. We had a truly international Thanksgiving with traditional dishes like homemade guacamole and gorditas (from the Mexicans), Greek salad (from the Greek), panipuri (crazy Indian street food from the Indian), and chocolate mouse cake (from the Spaniard and Catalan). We spent the day with good friends, ate delicious food, and even watched football! (Too bad Barça didn't win).
The turkey came with a couple feathers still attached.

Done!
