Thanksgiving feast.

This is for my Brits! A lot of them asked for pictures of Thanksgiving dinner.

I cooked all of this by myself. The kids helped chop and stir.

Around The Table

Thanksgiving is coming up fast. I love getting up early, putting the Turkey in, watching the Macy's parade while the Turkey cooks.

This year we are staying home and having company. We have three extra at our table besides my family of four. This is good news for me because I always cook way too much. Growing up in a big family, learning to cook from my Grandma's and aunts, I only know how to cook for 20!

We are having Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots and rutabegas, Jello salad, Waldorf salad, gravy, cranberry relish( homemade), and rolls.

Most of those foods we only eat once a year and I cannot imagine leaving something out! Thank goodness we will have company to help.

One of my favorite sayings is "Around the table memories are made". Grandma had a huge table which we played under, sat and chatted at, at many a meal, played games and enjoyed life. I am thankful to be able to carry on that tradition in my own home.
