Summary: Jack makes the team a special Thanksgiving dinner.  (Yes, I know the UK doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving, but Jack's supposedly American, and he needed a reason to make one of the dishes)

“Jack... what’s all this?” Tosh asked, staring at the food on the conference table.

“Thanksgiving dinner! We’ve got turkey, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, stuffing, and bread pudding.”

“You made us dinner?” Owen was shocked.

“Of course!” Jack didn’t even try to keep the indignation out of his voice. “And it took forever to find some of the ingredients, so you better appreciate it!”

“Very kind of you, Sir,” Ianto said. “It looks delicious.”

Jack beamed. “Wait till you try the bread pudding. There’s a secret ingredient that makes it special.”

“Why does that worry me?” Tosh whispered to Ianto.


Author's note: Seventh in the powdered sugar crack!fic series. See if you can guess the secret ingredient Jack used for his bread pudding by looking at the recipe here.

I was watching food network and saw them making it and well.. that recipe just screams alien donuts, doesn't it? (I don't think it would taste good, and would be a terrible waste of 2 dozen donuts, but it lead to a pretty funny idea!)

Seriously, how could you *not* use that idea? Excellent. And I love that you did a holiday edition of the Alien Donut series. :)

See, that's exactly what I thought! I'm attempting a thanksgiving part 2 now, the word count is fighting me though

I don't think it would taste good

I've made bread pudding with brioche, which is fairly sweet, and that was lovely. I think this would probably be yummy, though I'd probably skip the rum sauce as I think that would be too sweet for me. :-)

Anyway, love the fic. Lots of fun and nicely in the holiday spirit! :-)
