Thanksgiving fajitas

No big surprise that American holidays aren't celebrated here but it just feels as if Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that should be worldwide. Besides the fact that we couldn't find ingredients for a more traditional Thanksgiving (apparently turkeys are eaten in Turkey for New Year's Day and start showing up in stores in mid-December) it just didn't have that touch football-crisp apples-autumn leaves-choose your cliche feeling that I associate with the 4th Thursday in November. So what did my resourceful and clever wife do? She booked us tickets to Istanbul where there were no turkeys either but where we had quite a weekend and ate rather well. More to come as we start sorting through the photos.
