It is Thursday!!!

Just one week till Thanksgiving! I can't wait ! Looking forward to great food and all the family being together. Remembering the days of my youth when my Grandmothers and Uncle George would come to dinner. My Mother would have a gorgeous table set with lots of wonderful food. After dinner everyone would have dessert and coffee. Aww, what sweet memories! I miss those days. Now that my children have grown I keep the same traditions in my home. I still prepare food just as my Mother did and make the her Orange Cake and Cranberry Relish. Those are two of my favorite holiday dishes!

A few years back we had an old fashion Thanksgiving in Pocahontas County at Cass, WV. My Son rented a renovated Cass house and my brother, sis in law, my husband and I took all the food. It had a beautiful old fashion wooden table. We filled it up with the yummiest food anyone could ever want!

Please feel free to share you holiday memories!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Talking Turkey!

Yummy ! Turkey Time! When cooking your turkey you can spice it up a bit. Adding a little onion and celery while cooking makes it so tasty. I rub the outside and inside of the turkey with salt and also use some Rosemary as a seasoning. I grilled onions and added some sweet carrots around my turkey after I place it on the platter. Celery is also a great garnish. If you like to stuff your turkey slightly dry out the cavity with some paper towels to keep from being so greasy and place stuffing in cavity about 45 minutes before turkey is done. It will be a nice golden brown when it is done. I can't wait till we all sit down to a wonderful table of food with everyone I love the most! Family!
