Ours was a small gathering, just Mom and Dad and my brother and his semi-separated wife and their seven-year-old boy and me. Mom and I are vegetarians, so she bought a fancy spiral-cut honey-baked ham rather than fix the meat herself... but oh, what she did fix! We had:

- Fruit shishkebabs (strawberries, bananas, blackberries,
pineapple, and mandarin oranges on toothpicks)
- Yeast rolls
- Cornbread muffins
- Harvard beets
- Corn casserole (immortalized on some other
thread here as Dorie's Corn Casserole)
- Mashed potatoes
- Sweet potatoes sauteed in butter and brown sugar
- Two kinds of cranberry relish
- Pumpkin pie with whipped cream
- Hot apple crisp with vanilla bean ice cream

I helped a little, but for the most part, my 80-year-old mother managed that whole feast all by herself... and she saved some of the ham for the kitties, too. What a good mom! :-)

We had the following:


Turkey (roasted, with sage, salt, pepper with stuffed onions and celery and rubbed vegetable oil around the turkey)
Homemade gravy
Honeybaked Ham
Stuffing (not Stove top--this is made from corn bread, white bread, and all sorts of stuff like carrots and cerely, let me know if you want the recipe)
Pumpkin (with roasted mashmellows on top, this tastes much better than yams)
Fruit Salad (apples, pineapple, pears, cherries, etc)
Green beans with bacon
cranberry sauce
Crescent rolls
olives, pickles, stuffed cerely
Granny's recipe~Pecan pie


I am still stuffed

I love cooking also. I didn't do much for thanksgiving this year. I prepared the turkey for deep frying, stuffing, and garlic noodles. I also made some clam chowder for my mom because she was begging me for it the other day.

We're having another get together tomorrow. So far, my menu is:

roasted garlic mashed potatoes
turkey tortilla soup
buttery lemon salmon
buffalo wings
spinach dip
garlic cheese toast
swedish meatballs
corn bread with honey butter
possibly some mac & cheese
