Default OT Turkey was angraecum leonis

Hah! Frank & I both love to cook. The very first year we were together, he
had already retired (early). I was still working. I had this tradition of
making treats for Christmas and giving them away.

One day I came home and he had made (are you ready?) 11 dozen cookies!
Trying to steal my thunder, I tell you, so I out did him the next day. Good
thing we had lots of cookie monsters in our life.

Guess I really love these holidays. And to all, a good night for now.

Yeah, but there's love mixed in there! A pox on the stores that opened on
Thanksgiving day. Sorry to anyone who shopped.........

Amen to that, wife and I had shopped for everything we needed well in
advance. No need to make any last minute runs to the store. Time to
relax and spend with family and friends. Shopping could wait.

As you can tell I love to cook and so does my wife, and
I wondered why I needed bigger and bigger shirts....

Dave just wants our mouths to water.... all over again. I love
thanksgiving, LOL!! Its all about the food.

Well yeah there is that.... It is PARTLY about the food, it is MOSTLY
about family and friends and sharing the love WITH food. Wife made
home made pies after baking two sugar pumpkins for the filling.
Everything we did was made from scratch, cornbread for the stuffing,
pecans for the stuffing came off the trees in our yard. The Herbs used
in cooking came from the garden. All to make it right for the Family.

Old fashioned I suppose but it was what my mom and grandma did and so
for me it is what Thanksgiving is all about.

Peace
