Happy Thanksgiving!

November 22, 2007

Hi! I hope you’re all enjoying your holiday. I am sitting on the couch waiting in anticipation of the fabulous meal my husband has cooked. (Have I mentioned how spoiled I am?) The weather was beautiful hear in the mid-Atlantic region so my dad and I went for a walk.

stuffingI did have one contribution to the meal and that’s the stuffing. My stuffing recipe is actually from my mom’s father. It’s the stuffing that I’ve had growing up. I even toast my own bread. Actually, Bill helped and I only set off the smoke detector once which I believe is a record. I mix up the stuffing on Tuesdays and bake it on turkey day. We also make creamed spinach, broccoli rice casserole, a turkey and a roast, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry relish and I think that’s it. We always heat up croissants to and I don’t know why because they always get overlooked with all the other goodness. Oh, and have I mentioned all this food is for 3 people? We do love leftovers!

On this wonderful day I am thankful for my family, those present and not, and especially my hubby, for my health, and for my happiness.

I hope you all have plenty to be thankful for and that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

    ohhh you are just too too funny!!!! glad to hear the smoke detector only went off once- hehe… we never really had stuffing growing up but being with ramel, dressing is a huge ordeal… first time i found out the difference between dressing and stuffing (not like i REALLY know, just pretend i do hehe)… i made it one year and he said it was almost as good as his gramma’s and better than his mom’s :) ah, now i want some meatless dressing

    hugs to you!!! hope you are doing well!! i have been wearing the silverish pair of earrings daily, without taking them off… your earrings are really soooo comfy!!
