Thanksgiving 2008

Here it is Thanksgiving Day again.
Actually, this is the day after Thanksgiving Day, it's called
Black Friday. I guess that most of all y'all are out shopping,
getting those good deals on whatever it is everybody buys just
after they've eaten a huge turkey dinner with all the trimmings.
I usually avoid any kind of store on this day, at all costs,(although one year,not too long ago Molly some how persuaded me to go). I don't remember if I thought it was worth it or not.
Anyway, back to Thanksgiving...
Last night we had a house-full. And this year was the first time I
can say I out did myself on the food.
Our Menu:
Turkey
Mashed Potatoes & Gravy
Green Bean Casserole
Pistachio Salad
Sweet Potato Casserole
Corn
White Birthday Cake
Pumpkin Pie
Chocolate Whipped Pie

I sent the boys and Miss Nancy home with goody bags, so this was also the first year I didn't have leftover turkey (YEAH!)
We all had such a great time together visiting and laughing. It
all went much too fast before the night was over. And it was fun
to be out in our new room. David and Ross put our free-standing fireplace that is usually in our bedroom into the new sun room so that we'd be all nice and toasty.
