THANKSGIVING RECAP

I know, I know - it's December and I'm posting Thanksgiving pictures.  Deal with it.  I figure that if I still have leftovers in my fridge (no matter how moldy they're getting), then I still have time to revisit the festivities of holidays gone by.  Let's see, where to begin... oh yes!  How about with the part where I made 6 giant loaves of corn bread in an attempt to have my sole contribution be homemade.  I finally decided on this recipe (partially because it has the most butter and sugar and partially because I ran out of patience time), but not before taste testing myself into a belly ache just hours before feast time. Big mistake. I did, however, muster up enough strength to taste test a new raw dessert recipe for strawberry filled brownie bites. My only addendum is to add a handful of your favorite nuts to the mixture. Yum!  After that it was a pretty standard family gathering:  dancing atop player pianos, belting out Broadway show tunes, putting turkey's on our heads, and watching 96 year old women diss on their grand kids (see video clip below).  Definitely my type of shindig.

I think I peed myself when I captured this shot.

It's not hard to see why we added "goofy grandma's, digital cameras and store-bought cornbread" to our list of thankfulness this year.  Happy Thanksgiving.
