Holiday Food in U.S. Turkey Day! Happy Halloween! Trick or Treat! Today is Halloween, October 31st. I wonder which other countries have taken this holiday and give out candy to in other parts of the world. Here in the U.S., favorite candy bars are Hershey chocolates, Musketeers bar, Milky Way, Reese Peanut Butter cups, M&Ms. The cheaper brands are given out. For other occasions, like Valentines' Day, other Gourmet chocolates are given as gifts. Please go on You Tube see some of the Halloween Light shows that people have constructed on their houses in the U.S. I went on a Halloween Pub Crawl in costume. Please read my other blog on parading in the streets of downtown Seattle at Pike Place Market! Tonight I won't be home to give out candy since we only got 2 last year and I waited around for them too. We live on a dead end street up a steep driveway. I might just leave the candy outside on the porch. Our next major U.S. holiday is Thanksgiving or Turkey Day! My family and relatives have an all American Meal with roast turkey with gravy, stuffing, ham or pork, mashed potatoes, corn, mixed green salad, cranberries, nuts, cheese and crackers, raw vegetables like carrots, cucumbers with ranch dip. For dessert my cousin will make a cheesecake. My uncle passed away who used to make the Pumpkin Pie. But he is gone now. So my aunt will probably buy the apple or pumpkin pie with whipped cream. For Christmas we have almost the same American meal, with turkey and sometimes roast beef. But sometimes my other cousin make quiche, Xmas Cookies with colored icing. My former neighbors, when I was married, used to make home baked cookies and deliver them to us for their gift. On Christmas Day, all restaurants are closed except in Chinatown. They will still be serving BBQ pork, Hong Kong Chow mein, Beef with vegetables and mushroom, Ginger crab, Dim Sum, Shark fin Soup and Jasmine long grain rice. Birds nest soup is another favorite for Chinese people. Local Seattle Chinese and immigrant Asian families will be shopping last minute to make their favorite Asian food for dinner. Am I making you hungry? Then go visit your local Chinese, Thai, E. Indian restaurant! Anywhere in the U.S.and in the smallest towns there's Teriyaki, Chinese food at least.
