387. Thanksgiving is a favorite time of year for so many reasons. The great meal with stuffing, mashed potato, pan gravy, homemade pies and roasted turkey. Each year I try to make something new or edit a favorite dish but this year I migrated back to our favorites done just as they simply are.
Here are a few photos of our feast...sweet potatoes with pecans, stuffed mushrooms, green beans with almonds and stuffing (in the bird! the only way to do it!)
I make homemade cranberry relish with orange where I take an entire bag of cranberries, a whole orange, rind and all and a cup of sugar. Place them all in a food processor and chop. Then spoon it into a serving dish. Perfect every time!
Each plate was perfect...colorful...but more important, delicious!
And for the finale...apple pie, pumpkin pie and pecan pie.
“Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.”– Henry Ward Beecher
