Thanksgiving Preparations
The Thanksgiving preparations are all complete for today! I made an apple pie, a pumpkin pie, the dressing, set the table with my Green Depression Glass, peeled the potatoes and clean up a little. My daughters collect yellow and pink depression glass. One year we used all three colors for Thanksgiving. It looked really pretty!
I had a strange thing happen with the turkey. I thawed out the turkey and I always boil the neck and giblets for stock for my dressing. Well I pulled the neck out of the carcass and I went to pull out the little bag with the giblets and it wasn't there! How could a turkey not have the giblets??? Oh well I used just the neck to made the stock for the dressing. Never had that happen before.
I went to the Dr. this morning and I do have a sinus infection and the start of an ear infection. Good thing I went to the Dr. I've only had one call so far from the office.
Now it's time for me to rest, read and take a nap!!
Beautiful table, I love clear dishes.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the sinus infection, I know the feeling. My doctor called me today to say mine are inflamed. Which means I have had an infection for a long time.
Bella-feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteYour table setting looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI'm suffering with a nasty cold at the moment so do sympathise and hope you feel better soon

ReplyDeleteGorgeous table setting! Happy Thanksgiving!
Your dining room looks wonderful, all set for turkey dinner. I'm sure you enjoyed the feast, even minus the giblets!
ReplyDeleteI was interested to learn about boiling stock for stuffing. I've never done that before. I don't think anyone in my family has done so.
Thanks for visting my blog. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty table! Sorry I missed you yesterday - hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving, too!
ReplyDeleteThe picture of you and your daughters is beautiful!
Your table looks just beautiful Sherri! I hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed with your beautiful table. I forgot to take a photo of ours. It wasn't nearly as gorgeous as yours.
