Thanksgiving - Apex, NC Style
We have the most wonder friends - the Strong Family. We knew them while we were in Dallas, TX. Carly and Griffin have known each other since they were about 6 months old. We ventured down to North Carolina to spend Thanksgiving with them. It was one of the best holidays I've ever had. You see, Stacy is known as "the hostess with the mostess." And I'm not kidding. Her house is beautiful, so warm and inviting. You walk in and you are instantly relaxed. And then there's her cooking. We'll get to that in a little bit. Stacy and I spent 7 hours cooking in the kitchen on Wednesday and had a ball. We just worked so well together and we both enjoy doing it so much that it was great. Thursday, all we had to do was cook the two turkeys - one fried and one roasted. We brined them both. One in a sweet brine and one in a spicy brine. They both turned out fabulously and no one could really pick one over the other in terms of which one was better. Thank you Strong Family for a wonderful visit. If the offer still stands, we're up for doing it again next year!
