Happy Thanksgiving

As I’m writing this the house is filled with the wonderful aroma of the turkey cooking in the oven.  I helped my wife prepare the stuffing this morning.  I had no idea how much work making stuffing can be!  She wanted to just use a prepared box convenience stuffing but I told her that I wanted to use my grandmother’s “from scratch” recipe.  She told me that I’d have to help and I agreed.  I don’t know if we’ll ever do that again!  It took a long time!  My wife says that she could have doctored up the boxed stuffing and make it taste just as good.  Well, maybe we’ll try that next time.

Anyway, I’m looking forward to a wonderful meal with my favorite green bean casserole, sweet potatoes with marshmallows, and apple pie for dessert!  I hope you all have a great meal too!
