Once in a blue moon I feel like cooking. Four and a half hours of cooking, 30 minutes or less to eat – jeepers! My niece Sarah has the right idea…. she doesn’t make anything that takes longer to eat than cook, lol.

If you knew me when my kids were little, you would have expected a grande feast from me for Thanksgiving. I was the one who baked all the cookies, painted all the windows, hand made all the invitations… I could put Martha to shame back in the day.
But in recent years, I’ve lost my zest for decorating for the seasons, preparing special meals, making everything from scratch, etc. …. until this year…. I’ve rejoined the festive … and am chalk full of holiday spirit. Here’s our Thanksgiving feast…
