Turkey Love

We are at the starting line of my most favorite time of the year. It all starts with T-giving tomorrow. Turkey and mashed potatoes and stuffing and pies...mmmmmm. Even more than the holiday meal, I think I like the days following becuase my mother always sends me home with tons of leftovers and I get to eat T-food for days extending the enjoyment. My mother banned me from desserts this year...I think because she is a traditionalist at heart and I tend to be a little more adventurous and never bake the same thing twice for the holidays...she just wants good ol' pumpkin and pecan pie this year. I do get to bring a delicious green bean casserole though, one of my faves of the season. It's a Martha recipe and it's fantastic. Homemade sauce and everything...no cream of mushroom soup here, though the old standard is just as delicious in its own right. All my siblings have made it into town too, so hopefully there will be lots of fun times over the next few days.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!
