A happy Thanksgiving to you.

My plans are the same as most everyone else’s I suppose. Dinner with the family and sit around and enjoy their company. I got the trains up just in time for the Grandkids to enjoy them.

I will check in here to get the news, and then have a nice Holiday. Hopefully.

You are so welcome, HT! Think about it.. when your tummy is full of lots of good food, I’ll be soaking the roaster pan, doing two loads of dishes and trying to figure out how to shove all the leftovers in the fridge! LOL! I’ve eaten at Golden Corral several times and it is a good restaurant (real mashed potatoes and even a dessert bar!) Hugs HT!

No really interested. Mom used to cook a mean grasshopper pie. Her Hollywood cheesecake was to die for.

FROZEN PEANUT BUTTER PIE:

1 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup extra chunky or chunky peanut butter (or smooth if you hate chunky)
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 8 oz carton of extra creamy whipped topping (cool whip or regular store brand). I used Safeway brand. Defrosted
1 9-inch graham cracker crust (I used the ready made)

Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer on low until soft and creamy. Mix in peanut butter and sugar until incorporated. Slowly add milk, beating until well blended. Fold in the whipped topping. Spoon into pie crust, mounding the top. Freeze until firm. When solid, cover with foil. Remove from freezer 10-15 minutes before serving.

***I should add that the recipe states this can be frozen weeks before you need it. This doesn’t apply in my household.. anything yummy (frozen or not) is quickly consumed by the kids. LOL!

“Is there any way you could share.. “gator swamp Cabbage”.

At this point.. I’m wondering if he/she could simply define it! LOL!!! I am guessing gator is alligator but completely at a loss for swamp cabbage.

Happy Thanksgiving to all FReepers.

Cooking turkey and all the usual stuff for my mother and I. all other family members have jumped the ship because mother has Vascular dementia, Lewy bodies dementia and Alzheimers disease. neurologist just determined she is now having seizures, start new medication in december. the challenges of having an elderly parent.

since I own the business I can spend more time at home and working at the 3 churches served to. no one else has to be laid off. the employees do appreciate that no one has been laid off.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. It is a favorite day for me. A time to reflect on how truly blessed we are.
I will be making dinner for my husband’s family. Then, I will go for suppertime to my Mom’s where my family will be gathered.
My turkey is in the oven and I made a pumpkin pie and apple pie today. Tomorrow, I’ll bake a ham and fix green beans, mashed potatoes, corn, gravy, and cranberry sauce.
My in laws bring homemade rolls, deviled eggs, potato salad, broccoli, and desserts.
After lunch, the guys watch football while the gals gab.
Food and Family together is what I love.

I know the feeling about people leaving, not wanting to deal with Alzheimers . It is so sad.Thank you for staying with Mom and cooking the meal.
God Bless you and your dear Mom.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

My sweetie and I are staying home - cooking a chicken and the regular trimmings.

So thankful to check in here. Makes me feel not so alone in how this world has changed. Very comforting.

Blessings to all!
