Happy Thanksgiving from Fair View
Sean and I are staying home this Thanksgiving and I am so bored with turkey and goose that this year I have requested that Sean make his spectacular canard à l'orange. (Sean does virtually all of our cooking. Can I pick a man or what? His Yorkshire pudding is to die for.)
He has always used Julia Child's recipe for the duck and it comes out fabulous every time. The skin is always crispy and tangy with the zest of orange.
He used to use the remainder of the orange and some Grand Marnier to make chocolate mousse. But I have sworn off chocolate now that I have migraines. I suppose we will have to think of something else. Maybe we will make a cake or a pie.
I will be visiting my mother and her new puppy, Vasco, from Monday to Thursday next week, so there will be no posts then. But I will return with lots of photos.
Fair View wishes you all a warm, safe and happy holiday season this Thanksgiving no matter where you live in the World.
