Happy Thanksgiving!! November 26, 2009

It's Turkey Day!!

Today is the day to be thankful, so today I am very thankful for having a wonderful family who loves and cares about me.  I have an amazing husband who treats me like a Queen!!  I also have a wonderful Mom and Dad who love me and always make me laugh, I love them very much.  They are the best parents anyone could ever wish for.  My grandparents are wonderful as well.  They are always there to listen and give there advice.  And last but not least, I have the most amazing fur babies ever!!  They are the cutest and most loving kitty cats in the whole world!!

So, today it's just my husband and me this year.   And of course our wonderful fur babies.  I tried to keep it simple and somewhat healthy this year.  I made a small turkey breast with an herb and olive oil paste.  For side dishes, I made mashed sweet potatoes, cornbread dressing and collard greens with onions and a smoked turkey wing for flavor.  We will also have some cranberry sauce...of course!  That's a must for my hubby!!  I also cut way back on the amount of butter and oil I would normally have used.  I am more than pleased so far with the results.  I will post some pics later of the final spread!

Happy Turkey Day!
