    Default What is on your Thanksgiving menu?

    Whether you are cooking it all, brining something to share or just going to eat share what your thanksgiving feast will be.

    Im cooking this year we are having a very traditional carb fest of all my favorite recipes.
    Turkey, cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, giblet gravy, green beans (not the cassarole) asparagus, sweet potatoes and cranberries. Mil is taking care of dessert pumpkin, and apple pie.

    Oh no after rereading that I realized I forgot some kind of rolls well hell hmmmmmm I think I'll buy those everything else I am making from fresh I think I will be forgiven if I purchase the rolls.

    So what are you having?

    Going to friends and bringing wine. It's the traditional carb fest there as well with most of what you've mentioned above. (Their rolls are store-bought as well, so don't sweat the small stuff!). Happy Thanksgiving one and all.

    DD is taking me to Ted's Montana Grill for Thanksgiving. I wanted to cook at my house and she didn't want to cook at all this year.

    This is the first year my three adult children and their families are not coming to our house. My dh and I told them a few months ago that it is time to pass on the baton and they do their own holiday dinners. They each own their own homes now too. It's a lot of work and energy and a lot of activity in our house when we host. I had knee replacement a month ago an my dh is to have back surgery next month so we felt it was time to stop being the hosts. Even tho they invited us to their houses we just want to be home and do our own thing. My dh and my mother who lives with us will be having cinnamon rolls for breakfast then when ready we will be having turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, egg nog, black olives, gravy and pumpkin pie. Those are our favorites. Along with some peace and quiet!!

    We still plan to continue hosting our annual seafood fest on 4th of July along with our annual pig roast on Memorial Day with all of them in attendance, God willing.

    We're having similar to the above, but include cranberry salad (cranberries, oranges & rasp. jello). Also a pumpkin sheet cake-with cream cheese frosting. Yum!
    Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    Francie...my mil learned that the hard way one year. Her doctor advised her to use less salt or salt substitute... so she used substitute in EVERYTHING. It was horrible!!
