Happy Thanksgiving!

While we may not eat Thanksgiving with most or any of our family, we still have a traditional meal.  The other day while sitting with my daughter and one of her classmates at lunch, I asked him if he was looking forward to Thanksgiving.  He just gave a shrug.  The Babe immediately piped in how she loves stuffing.  So I couldn't resist teasing, and asking her if she thought I was making some for Thanksgiving.  Her response, also said jokingly, "What do you think, Woman?!".  I guess that would be a resounding yes.  This year's menu will include a 14 lb. turkey (yes, just for the three of us which will mean lots of leftovers), stuffing, baked potato and sweet potatoes, a vegetable not yet determined, and chocolate chip pumpkin bread.  My goal is not to overdo it, since there will be a lot that has to be done over the next few days besides just making and eating our Thanksgiving meal.  More on that later.  Have a happy Thanksgiving.
