Thanksgiving Day 2010

Good morning to all in blogland! Happy Thanksgiving Day to all who celebrate this holiday and a wonderful day to all the rest! I know we have much to be thankful for as we are truly blessed in so many ways. I hope you all feel the same way. Take a minute to count your blessings!

My pies are made, watergate salad made, turkey will go in the oven soon. Company will start arriving about noon and our feast will be around 1:30 - 2:00 pm. We will have turkey, squash dressing, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes with butter, watergate salad, and pumpkin pie. We decided not to have the traditional cornbread dressing and possibly no gravy. Sweetie has always stuffed the bird with his family recipe stuffing but will try something new this year. I'm sure it will be wonderful.

We are having very warm weather -- the high is supposed to be 85 (F)today. I know not all of you share our lovely temps -- my nephew has a foot of snow, my niece and brother-in-law have icicles on the grill -- but here on the gulf coast it is lovely and we have been running the a/c to keep the muggy air out of the house. Tomorrow will be another story, however, as the cold is on its way!

What are your plans for today?

We cooked most everything yesterday or it is ready to bake today, and will eat late this afternoon. Our daughter is here and helped cook yesterday. Tomorrow is our "big day". Our son & DIL come, and we put our outdoor Christmas lights out and eat leftovers. We are to have a high of 36 degrees....but it's tradition. You and your family have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving Anita to you and yours. We don't celebrate it over here, in fact, we don't have much to celebrate at all as we are in desperate trouble with the economy but these things have a way of coming right in time.
We've had our Flower Show. I'll e-mail you all the details later.
