I’m thinking turkey today. And tacos! I love Thanksgiving and even more, I love when people ask me how we celebrate it in Europe. Uhm…it’s not that we are not thankful by nature, we are just not on the bandwagon with all that pilgrim stuff and all. No, seriously, you should know your country and why you have certain holidays. Google it! These turkey tacos were inspired by Evil Czech’s duck tacos. They are AMAZING! I hope their franchise is…

My Mama’s Roasted Chicken Mama never cared for desserts and they didn’t care for her either. She only baked on those rare occasions, when she wanted to surprise us or perhaps to prove herself that she can bake. But she can’t. You know how some people don’t have a green thumb in gardening? Well, mama doesn’t have whatever the equivalent is in baking. Her cakes always turned into an inedible mass that could probably be used as packing material…
