The usual suspects - turkey, stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, green beans, potatoes, cranberry sauce, rolls, and rice with pigeon peas (my husband is Puerto Rican). It's a lot of carbs, but it's just one day.
Plus two pies and turkey cookies. |
| Mostly the usuals, which in our family includes a sweet potato and apple dish, scalloped oysters, and a dessert called a Funny Cake that is Dlish! |
