Okay, Now I'll Tell You About Thanksgiving

I know, I know... You are soooo over Thanksgiving. The Christmas panic has begun. We can't go back now!

I will begin my month of angst-filled holiday posts soon.

For now, I bring you my Grandmother's turkey.


...and my little turkey...




 ...and my favorite Grandpa...



...and these boy beasts, who actually stopped texting their girlfriends to play with Violet...



I will spare you photographs of a car-sick covered Violet and me in my pajamas at dusk.  I'm sure your imagination can fill in the gaps.

Onward to Christmas!

  2. I wish we had Thanksgiving, or something to fill the gap between Halloween and Christmas! What do you all have for Christmas dinner? Is it turkey again?

  3. MrsW- Christmas dinner varies more than Thanksgiving, but a lot of people serve ham. My Grandmother always made bacon wrapped scallops and shrimp cocktail for Christmas Eve. Personally, I only bake cookies and then I force them on others.

  4. Aah - we're firmly entrenched in turkey over here - but like you guys it's a once a year thing. Your Grandmother's menu sound delish.

    I introduced a touch of decadence to the proceedings with a goose one year, but at around US$80 for the bird it may be a while before I repeat that particular Charles Dickenseque experience.
