What's for dinner??

[Karenluvs6]

This thread was actually Debby's idea.....my efforts to try and reach her, to ask her if she wishes to start this thread, didn't go so well.

Debby suggested that we run a thread about our holiday meals....See what each other is cooking or just eating.

I'll start!

Turkey
Maple & Brown Sugar, Spiral Sliced Ham
Dressing (stuffing)
Cranberry sauce
Homemade Mac n cheese
Mashed potatoes
Fresh Corn
Fresh Green Beans
Fresh Broccoli
Lots of gravy!
dozens of crescent rolls
sweet potatoes with those little apple pieces
pumpkin pie with cool whip
coconut custard pie with cool whip
apple pie with cool whip

I can feel myself getting fat!!!!!

what are you having for Thanksgiving dinner?

Yeah, that sweet pototato whipped/baked/thingy with marshmellows is what I'm talking about. My mom puts orange juice in it for some reason. Still, it tastes great.

We had the traditional, turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, greenbean casserole,creamed onions,stuffing. But we had dessert twice!! Once at my aunts and then at my mother in laws!!!

Some lady brought me some smoked turkey, ham and another fine meat that I honestly have no idea what it was...but it was the best tasting!
Potatoes, corn, green bean salad, stuffing, rice crispy treats, olives, pumpkin pie, and some other veggies.
I was very thankful for the meal, I was expecting peanut butter and jelly! She showed up and handed it to me, it's a lady I work with. Made me glad to be human again. :)
