My Thanksgiving dinner
 
I roasted a 25 lb turkey stuffed with my celery walnut stuffing. Along
with it there we steamed broccoli, squash medley, mashed rutabaga,
garlic mashed potatoes, sugar-sweetened whole berry cranberry sauce, and
gravy.

For dessert my sibling-in-law baked *two* pies this year! One was his
usual delish pumpkin pie, and he also made his first pecan pie.

I had a little bit of everything and didn't bother testing, since I was
on my feet all day hefting heavy pans, but I sent away with my sister,
sibling-in-law, and niece all the leftover potatoes, squash, cranberry,
and pies except for servings saved out for my mother tonight and one
more piece of the pumpkin pie for me. Oh, and they got about 1/2 of the
leftover turkey.

This afternoon or tomorrow I'll make up a big batch of my sugar-free
cranberry sauce for me to eat with leftovers.

I hope everyone here had a good day.

Here it is common to do roast potatoes with beef but mashed with turkey.
Don't ask me why.

That sure sounds good, Priscilla! For me, pecan pie was the BG killer, but
it tastes so good!

I speculated that this turkey was the best I've ever done, and my mother
asserted that the gravy was the best she had ever tasted! :-)

chuffed,
