Turkey Normandy Pot Pie

Hoo boy!  Thanksgiving’s over and we’re all stuffed to the gills.  Oh yeah, and have a boatload of leftovers too!  What in the cat hair do we do with all the leftovers!?!?!?

Cranberry Orange Relish

It’s almost here!  It’s almost here!  Thanksgiving that is!  I LOVE Thanksgiving!  Cuz, well, I LOVE food.  I know y’all didn’t know that about me, right?  It’s a shocker!  But pick yourself up off the floor now and let’s talk about another Thanksgiving staple at my house.

Cranberry Glazed Carrots

Have I mentioned how much I love the holidays?  Yeah, um, well, I DO!  I think the holidays are God’s way of letting me have something to look forward to after I’ve endured another hateful October.  I’ve always loved them, but after both my parents died, the holidays are really the only things that get [...]

Roasted Turkey Breast

Well, it’s coming up on Thanksgiving.  You can’t really HAVE Thanksgiving without turkey now, can you?  If you can, keep it to yourself because I’ve operated for 39 years now expecting Turkey for Thanksgiving and don’t wanna know if treason is perpetrated by not having turkey on TURKEY day, for crying out loud!  LOL

Pecan Pie

Can there BE a holiday gathering without Pecan Pie?  If you’re a good little Southern girl, there can’t be!  It’s impossible!  Your long-departed Southern ancestors would come back to haunt you!  At least that’s what would happen at MY house!  My Moma and Granny would definitely come back to haunt me if I dared to [...]

Homemade Macaroni and Cheese

Another Thanksgiving buffet idea coming right up!  At my Granny’s house on Thanksgiving, there HAD to be Mac and Cheese!  And none of that boxed stuff either!  It was homemade!  At the holidays, it was usually made by my Aunt Linda……….any other time, my Moma or Granny made it.  But the point is, they MADE [...]

Creamed Spinach

So let’s make some Creamed Spinach!  What?  You’re not Popeye, you say?  You don’t LIKE spinach?  Yeah, well, I always thought [...]
