Thanksgiving

We didn't take enough pictures this Thanksgiving season. But, mom managed to snap a few. This is the fresh flower centerpiece I made for the table and the BRINSON art in my kitchen.








This one is me in the lovely new apron my mom made for me with, my favorite, a pineapple on it.
And finally, Jonathan and I carving the turkey. Jonathan was trying to carve and I was trying to direct his every move. He put up with me, however. The whole family was at the house
Here was our menu. Thank goodness mom and Cheryl were so willing to help me because I thought we need to cover everything. And everything sure tasted good.

MENU
Alton Brown's Brined Turkey
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
Butzin's Classic Stuffing
Sweet Potato Casserole
Spinach and Cheese Puff
Green Bean Casserole
Lillian's Creamed Corn
Lillian's Field Peas
Cream Biscuits and Onion Dip
Cranberry Sauce
Orange Jello Mold
Grandma's Apple Pie
Cream Cheese Pumpkin Pie
Cheryl's Pecan Pie
Needless to say we were all full. I had a lot of fun in the kitchen and a great time with the family. And that is really something to be thankful for.
