Some words to describe my Thanksgiving this year would be; tasty, interesting, different, strange, filling, surprising, diverse, exciting, random, novice and most of all, memorable.
It was a nice holiday away from home. Thanks to a gal in one of my classes, I even had a full thanksgiving meal! She made a 14-pound turkey, gravy, green beans, chocolate pie and sweet potato fries. I brought the mashed potatoes, deviled eggs, and two beautifully inedible pumpkin pies! (My friend forgot to add the sugar!) I even cooked the first pie in my little tabletop oven! It was like baking thanksgiving desert in a grownup version of the “Easy Bake Oven”! It came out beautifully and I was so proud of myself for baking my first pumpkin pie to perfection, all by myself! But then we taste it… Opps! Won’t make that mistake again! A few people said they didn’t mind the taste of it when it was covered in homemade whip cream though! So a few slices got eating, believe it or not! They were such troopers! There were about 10 of us at the Thanksgiving meal Thursday and I only knew a handful of the people. It was interesting eating Thanksgiving dinner with people I hardly knew, but we were all able to go around the room and say what we were thankful for. I believe we had a very wide range of U.S. states represented that night. Indiana, Florida, Ohio, New York, Arkansas, Hawaii, California, and Washington I think. I got my fill of turkey, mash potatoes, and deviled eggs so I was a happy camper! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!
