Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Do you celebrate Thanksgiving? If so do you cook for family and or friends? Or do you go somewhere else? If you cook what do you make? And last what is your favorite dish at Thanksgiving?Since my house can hold everyone we have all the holidays at my house. My husband watches the kids while I cook. we eat around 2pm. I make a juicy turkey (i just got this recpie online that i am going to try for the turkey), stuffing, green bean carsorol, rolls, mashed potatoes with gravy, corn, taffy apple salad, cranberry sauce. and for dessert i make an apple pie and a chocolate pudding pie, my mom beings over her cookies and rice cripsie treats.

I cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal of turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, salad, dinner rolls, pumpkin pie and usually chocolate cake. We eat stuffed celery, black olives and green olives, too. There will only be three here for Thanksgiving this year but I'll make the same dinner anyway. It isn't Thanksgiving without it.

Yes, I cook for everyone that can be here. I cook the traditional meal. I usualy bake pies the day before, slow cook the turkey over night and do the dressings that day. I always make sure to cook plenty and there are lots of left overs. I will do several fruit pies and chocolate pie. I will make a cornbread dressing. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Thanksgiving I can't wait, it is the time of year when we out do ourselves. All the special food that we don't get all year. We have turkey/oyster dressing, mashed potatoes and potato salad, as my hubby is from the south and he perfers potato salad to mashed, baked mac and cheese, baked beans, fried cabbage, cranberry sauce. And for dessert, I make a cheese ball, a pumpkin roll, and some kind of cake, we try to make a chocolate pie which is my son's financeeeeeee's favorite. I can't wait for thanksgiving, you get to spend time with the entire family and celebrate and give thanks for all the good things that have happen in your life all year long. Happy Thanks giving to you and your family.
