Corn casserole
I was running around like a crazypants yesterday (we hosted this year for the first time!), but I did manage to grab some snaps of the Thanksgiving spread before we chowed down.
This was just a sampling of what we had on the table, because at Filipino holiday celebrations, it’s traditional to have enough to feed a small army and then some. The idea is to make enough to give to your family, friends and neighbors so that they’ll have leftovers to eat for the next few days. 
Breaded tilapia
Turkey
Lumpia (they’re kinda like egg rolls) and pancit (a Filipino noodle dish)
Roasted garlic mashed potatoes
Stuffing
Chocolate cake
I would really like to try Lumpia and pancit. And also mashed potatoes with garlic & turkey!

Everything looks so good. I just found your site on twitter. I’ll definitely check your blogs.
Looks yummy! Did you use your dining room?
EVERYTHING looks so good, I think I am going back into my carbohydrate coma just from looking.
Everything looks delicious!!
Everything looks amazing! I’ve had pancit before but not lumpia. One of my coworkers promised me lumpia so I hope to have it soon
Looks like an awesome Thanksgiving!
Wow–looks like you did an *incredible* job, Karen! Everything looks sooo good–especially that corn casserole (yum! Will have to keep that in mind for next year!), the tilapia, and the lumpia (I haven’t had some in sooooo long!!). Oh, and we also had persimmon at our table too (it was from an aunt!)

Oh God i am hungry now
Wow!! Looks yummy! Since I’m from Canada and celebrated Thanksgiving last month, my mouth was watering looking at those pictures. Great job!
We call that ” a festin ” in French ! Looks gorgeous and delicious !
Oh, yum… This looks soo delicious! I’m jealous, we just had traditional turkey, stuffing, mashed and sweet potatoes, green beans, rolls, and pumpkin pie. I’d love to have tilapia for Thanksgiving dinner, it looks like you had so much fun.
Is your cake the ultimate chocolate cake from Red Ribbon? If it is then YUMMMMM!
Happy thanksgiving to you and your family.
Ummm….lumpia! I’ve only had it once, but it was delicious! Everything else looks great too!
That turkey really looks moist!
I’ve never had Filipino foods but your dishes look delicious! Must try these! Any cooking/preparation tips?
Oh that scrumptious cake… I think looking at it just gave me diabetes (:

Everything looks amazing! Great job!!
I thought of you while I was prepping the turkey this year (Karen would be gagging out right now…). HAHA! Sorry I haven’t checked in – we’ve been crazy busy at our house, too. It’s sad to say but, now that I’m back at work, I actually have time to turn on the computer for more time than it takes to upload a video!
