I'm still standing
Here I am! Its almost my second favorite holiday. I love Thanksgiving! I get to make the turkey and taters and stuffing and gravy and also the deviled eggs. Others bring the other stuff. Sweet rolls, bread rolls, pickles and olives, pies, and whatever else they want to bring. We always have way too much food, but it's great anyway. It's a lot of giddy-up for not much. After we eat we don't really do anything else. I would love to play games or go to a movie, or even as a last resort go for a walk. But we just sit and chat and than those who have to go...go. Kinda sad in a way, but if it lasted all day I would probably have to kick people out. I don't do black Friday. I have once and it was enough. It seems like a large waste of time, but some people just love it. I enjoy being out of work and getting to sleep in a little. The only problem with Thanksgiving is that I live in a house of leftover refusers. I know they should just eat it anyway, but my tolerance for whine is very low so I don't force it. Have a great Thanksgiving to anyone who may be reading this. And the next is my favorite holiday....Christmas!!!!!!

It's alive!
Who comes to your house for Thanksgiving? You should come to mine. :)
See if there's a mission somewhere that will take left over food.? Probably not. Freeze it in small platefuls for you to reheat for yourself. It would be nice for all of us to get together that day, but it would be quite stressful for you. :) Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. Mom
Turkey olive casserole, 2 TS chopped onion & green pepper, 2 TS olive oil, 2 cups diced cooked turkey or chicken, 1 cup elbow macaroni cooked, 1 can 10 oz cream of celery soup, undiluted, 2 TS dry sherry, 1 jar 2 1/2 oz sliced mushrooms drained, 1/2 cup sliced stuffed olives, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon white pepper, 1/4 cup buttered bread crumbs. cook onion and pepper in oil, add remaining ingredients except bread crumbs. spoon into buttered 1 1/2 qt casserole, sprinkle with bread crumbs. bake uncovered at 375 for 35 to 40 minutes, serve 4.
Hi Julie! Glad you are still kicking. I don't believe in Black Friday...haha well I don't leave my house that day...I made that mistake once...
Merry Christmas!
