Thanksgiving for One: Keeping It Simple

 

I have never roasted a turkey in my entire life.  And have been single for nigh on to 20 years, I don't suppose I ever will.  I am totally okay with that.  

This year for Thanksgiving I roasted a Chicken!  I looked for the smallest one I could find and this one came in at just under 5 lbs.  In retrospect, I should have looked for a Cornish Hen.  To this I made but two sides: the traditional Green Bean Casserole and Stuffing Balls.  I did not stuff the chicken with stuffing, but with a pair of lemons (lacerated and poked full of wholes for the occasion).

For dessert, I made a Buttermilk Pear Pie.
