I am contributing a pumpkin pie, 4-layer dessert, and broccoli salad. Have almost everything done now-will do the broccoli and bacon tomorrow so that both are crisp. I am traveling with my items to my mom's later today. I hope I don't forget anything!

Reading all of this is making me hungry. My DH does Thanksgiving dinner and I do Noche Buena (Christmas Eve). We will be alone this Holiday - daughter cannot come - she lives in Oregon. More for us, our 4 cats, dog and birdies. But, we celebrated with my Mama, older sister, nieces and nephew last week. - Yup, I cooked.

I made our Thanksgiving dinner today. It was wonderful!
The meal was excellent, turkey was perfect, everyone was happy and we all ate more than our share.
My glass is 1/2 full.
I needed 45 minutes more 'oven time'. The turkey was out and the casserole dishes were ready to go in.
It had been cloudy and rainy all day. I was at the sink and thought 'the sun is glaring on the oven door glass.
How strange. THERE IS NO SUN!'
As I turned around I saw the heating element finish flaming. Went out like a candle on a cold dark night.
The phone rang, my daughter said "I am sorry we are going to be about an hour late".
My sweetie ran to the store, changed the heating element and the casseroles were coming out of the oven when my daughter arrived. :thumbup: What a wonderful day.
Tomorrow we go to his relatives for Thanksgiving #2.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. May you and yours be blessed.
