Thanksgiving was delicious! We set the table with my antique blue glass candlesticks and some mercury glass votives. My grandmama's silver and crystal made an appearance and made everything look beautiful. And we sat for hours eating and talking. I even served up my cranberry sauce in little crystal glasses.
A little blurry. But from the moment the turkey went in, Max had to be watching it. And if he walked away, but heard you open it to check on it he came bounding back in. He took his turkey watching job very seriously.
Pumpkin soup, a delicious first course!
Yes, part of this was eaten before the photo....the camera started acting squirrely and wouldn't work and I might have freaked out a tiny bit.
Third course of sweet potato casserole with pecans.
Homemade cranberry sauce in crystal glasses.
And finally I have to share that I am that animal mom who spoils her children. The babies love flour, so when I'm baking they might get a sweeping of it on the floor. But I think this year took the cake when I decided that they needed a Thanksgiving dinner too and painstakingly peeled the meat from the turkey neck for them, added some mashed potatoes and dressing and called it a day.
Hope everyone enjoyed the holiday and has plenty of leftovers to snack on! We're off to see Harry Potter and I am so super excited!
The photo of Max is priceless.
