Thanksgiving Dinner



We started Thanksgiving dinner with zucchini squares as appetizers.



Then we had stuffing...



and the bird of course.




Yes, there was cranberry sauce.



I made cream cheese mashed potatoes.



My sister made butternut squash.



There were family members present...



and good friends too.



Well, I had to try it all! And it was all sooo delicious!



For dessert, gingerbread cookies and a sneak peek to my Christmas soiree. Mary made a trial run with the new cookie molds I bought. The results were fantastic! Gingerbread nutcrackers and a lovely winter scene with kitties. These will be perfect for next week's party.



The impression on the cookies was crisp and clean! It took a bit of work on Mary's part.



We also had Mary's famous mile high apple pie, cookies from Clara, and lemon bread from Sheila.

It was a wonderful meal and Clara even let me keep one eye on the Patriots game while we ate dinner. What could be better than that!

I hope everyone had a wonderful day.

Happy Thanksgiving dear Elaine
Looks like you had a wonderful spread and fabulous company... Hope you saved some of that stuffing for me!! love stuffing!!!

Not sure if I'm too late but hope the rest of your Thanksgiving is as wonderful as the meal you shared with friends and family!!! ciao xxx Julie
What a lovely dinner you had. Mine was lovely also but I am not organized and never took a picture. My tea cups and tea arrived and are charming. Will be sending out a special thank you in the mail.
Everything looks delicious! Glad you had a wonderful Holiday :)
Everything looks delicious and very similar to what we had. I've never had butternut squash the way yours is made though, and it really looks fantastic! And the cookies turned out beautiful...gingerbread dough is hard to work with. I made an apple pie with 4 apples instead of the 7 called for in the Paula Deen recipe. It was the complete opposite of your 'Mile High Pie"! lol!

So glad you had a wonderful day!

XO,
Jane
Oooh, the food looks so yummy!! It makes me wish I was there with you!!

You could have hidden me in the kitchen so I wouldn't have got in the way. I only want to nibble on your gorgeous food!!

I'm so glad you had a great time.

I hope your weekend is good too!
