Southern Living Thanksgiving

Well ya'll I am in domestic heaven. This year Thanksgiving is at our house. Take a look at this beauty I'm making. Sweet Potato Pie with Marshmallow Meringue. I'm growing up.

You can tell you are growing up when you are excited about making your very first meringue pie. Truth is this pie could taste like dirt but I want a slice on my plate because it is so purty. This year I'll be the old aunt making pies.

Suh. Weet.

The next dish I'm equally excited about is Giada's Spiced Apple Walnut Cake. The fun part about this recipe is that you have to wear a tube top while you cook it and you have to talk with your mouth full to annoy your poor guests who happen to be in the kitchen while you taste along the way making sure you got the seasonings correct.

The last two things I'm cooking are My Mom's Dressing and San Jacinto Sweet Potato Pie. If I give you those family recipes I have to kill you.

Well, I changed my mind. I love my blog friends so if you wanted it I'd give them to you. They're realllllyyyy good.

We're also having Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, Green Bean Casserole, Dinner Rolls, and I forget what else.

Dinner is at 5pm Thursday.

Heavy Hor D'oeuvres, Parades, Naps, & Footballs games will be the order of the day before dinner. Oh, that and tube top cooking.

From my kitchen to yours, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your peeps and that nothing burns and all your delicacies are seasoned to perfection.

Bon' Apetit!

I think cooking in a tube top would make everything taste better. Of course it could vethat people would be laughing so hard that they can't taste their food. I think i will try it.
