Yesterday, my oldest son and his wife prepared the most delicious Thanksgiving feast. My son cooked the turkey, put together a cabbage salad, and baked a chocolate Bundt cake topped with peanut butter frosting. My daughter-in-law made the green bean casserole, her mother's sausage stuffing, an abundance of mashed potatoes (using a Crock Pot recipe that involved chicken broth, sour cream, cream cheese, and a clove of garlic--those spuds were to die for!), and a pumpkin pie. My only contribution to the meal was the gravy. My husband and I got spoiled rotten--and we loved it. Everything was magnificent, and there are plenty of leftovers to heat up today!
Before the meal started, I snapped this picture of the dining room table. I thought it was so incredibly lovely. My daughter-in-law's transferware dishes (Spode's "Blue Italian") looked so beautiful against the autumn colors of the fabric square she positioned over the white tablecloth.
I love the look of a well-set table. And when well-loved faces are assembled around it, there's just nothing in the world more beautiful, is there?
Now THIS is beautiful! Am I right, or am I right?
Happy Leftovers Day! And God bless us, every one!
