Thanksgiving Memories
For the last post before Thanksgiving, I thought we would share some Thanksgiving Day memories. I’ll go first!
Thanksgiving to me means festive, warm, inviting smells snaking from the kitchen & snuggling your nose. It means comfortable family smiles, old & shared recipes, a hodgepodge of memories & lots & lots of food.
I remember one particular Thanksgiving while at my grandparent’s house, the bird got a little burned & all the flavor flew away. After all that hard work from everyone involved, we just laughed, packed into several cars & headed to the first open restaurant we could find. What sticks out in my mind about that holiday year, was not the burned turkey or the restaurant’s terrible dressing, but the fact that we were all so flexible & easy-going about the turkey incident that we all had a grand time & added some great memories to an already brimming stock.
Now, it’s your turn. Tell me what Thanksgiving means to you & maybe some Turkey Day memories. Make sure to tell me how your turkey preparation & roasting was this year & don’t forget about all those helpful hints!
May you all have a fabulous tomorrow & a great today! I am so thankful for my many, loyal readers. Thank you!

One year my Granny got distracted and forgot about the turkey. It was completely overcooked. Instead of starting on the side dishes, she went down to her restaurant, got another turkey, and started over. So we called the first turkey the “snack turkey” and had Thanksgiving dinner later in the day. We still ask for a snack turkey every year. If you dip overcooked turkey in gravey it’s not too bad. Happy Thanksgiving you luscious wife!
