Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving came and went.  This year we were proud to have 11 people (and 3 dogs) celebrate at our table.  I made a ham, a roast, and a turkey.  I also made cornbread dressing, fresh cranberry sauce, deviled eggs, candied yams, a green bean casserole, and fresh sweet iced tea with orange slices.  We miss the sweet tea from Atlanta.  For dessert we had fruit tart and home roasted coffee.  The dinner went off without a hitch.  After dinner Jimmy and his friends went to the back bedroom to play Mah Jong and the rest of us slept in front of the TV.  When I woke up the dishes were done!

The main problem was not having enough ovens.  I always thought having two ovens was decadent but really, if you are entertaining, you have to have two.  I roasted the beef outside on the grill.  Without the grill I would have been stuck!

Thank you to everyone who made it to our table.  We enjoyed your company and can't wait to do it again.  To the rest of you, I hope to see you next year, eh?
