Thanksgiving. My favorite day of the year. Last Thursday was no exception. It was a beautiful sunny day, not that I wouldn't have loved it if it had been rainy.... (Another favorite of mine, rainy days)
We had 17 people for a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone brought something and all I had to do is the turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes and a couple kinds of pies. Pumpkin and lemon (No merangue. Ran out of energy the night before. No pecan because I discovered I didn't have any corn syrup.) Amy brought sour cream apple pie. Lynn and Stan brought Collards and ham hocks, mashed turnips (later we acsertained that they were actually Rutabagas), cornbread with jalapenos, homemade bread and fudge. Ally brought lime and cranberry drink (limes from their tree) and sauted little whole greenbeans. Steve brought the traditional Heavenly Hash in Grandma's old pink bowl, and three kinds of cranberry sauce. He always cooks fresh cranberries and they're my favorite! Howard brought the traditional frozen turkey that we'll cook at Christmas.
The kids were delightful and they ate at a table in the new room, the patio conversion. Amy brought the dogs, Lottie and Steve, to play with Sadie. I think we all had a really good time. I know I did!
