Once you have pushed away from the Thanksgiving table and everyone is napping, go to your computer. You probably won't find a lot of new blog entries to read due to the holiday but here are some of our past Thanksgiving posts in case you need a blog fix.

My mama makes the best cranberry sauce - so much better than that jelled stuff that slides out of the can with a glup glup. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's Paula Deen's recipe:
Ingredients
1 (8-ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
1 (6-ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1 cup walnut pieces
1 cup pecan pieces
Directions
In a medium size bowl, gently fold together the cranberries, mandarin oranges, walnuts and pecans.
I like the sound of your dinner, GA - it sounds as if you have a lovely family and I know it will be wonderful to have them around your table.
I'll be with 41 family members - the oldest is my mom at 83 and the youngest is just learning to pull up on things. Massive food and the aforementioned sauce that mom will make. I took over the sweet potato casserole from her and will get started on that tonight.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, my friend.
Enjoy the holiday and the time with your family. Sounds like a wonderful meal is on its way.

Tomorrow we are taking a friend for vegetarian Chinese food. Friday I am cooking for Mr. RK and myself, although I am sure our kitties will be hovering. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeletePistachio fluff?? I need to know about that.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a terrific Thanksgiving! I am pooped already. We will have turkey,ham,dressing,mashed potatoes, green beans, rolls, cranberry sauce, gravy, pumpkin and apple pies.
I was about to ask about the Pistachio Fluff too. That sounds very intriguing and delicious. Have a wonderful, delicious Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI love cranberry sauce!
ReplyDeleteJust Me! Have to work. Haven't had one holiday off this year- can't afford it. Sucks all the fun out of life sometimes.
I bought a $4 turkey thigh- had it a day early, boiled potatoes, croissants from work, n Cranberries- a local crop.
Tomorrow I'll cook the frozen apple pie I bought for $2 on sale. Cheaper than apples this year.
You are indeed a fortunate person to have such a gathering-
Happy Thanksgiving!
I am painting today...not cooking...lol Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!
ReplyDeletePistachio fluff?? Oh, that sounds good. I must get my hands on that recipe (if you can get it). Pistachio is my favorite pudding, cake and ice cream. I can't get enough of it!
ReplyDeleteHope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Sounds like you've enjoyed quite a feast.
Happy Thanksgiving Annie :D
