Newlyweds: How was your Thanksgiving?

We had a great day! Even though it was alot of work, it was so worth it!

It was HORRIBLE

It wasn't bad. I actually found the best time on earth to travel the Belt Parkway is Thanksgiving at 5:30PM.

GREAT.

My turkey came out perfect!
I served Mashed potatoes, rolls, cranberry sauce, stuffing, corn and green beans.
They had chicken with brocolli & ham.

It was great. His grandmother seemed shocked that I could cook that much. LOL!


7 people for dinner.

ETA:
Oh yeah.. and pumpkin pie of course with cool whip.. Yummmy

Mine was Great too! :) My first time hosting a dinner in my new home

My turkey came out perfect!
I served Ham, Mashed potatoes, rolls, cranberry sauce, stuffing, green bean casserole.


It was great. And I used my china (for those interested -- I had posting on here debating whether I should). It survived and so did I! :) And, the best part -- NO ONE GOT FOOD POISIONING! :)

We had 9 people for dinner and 12 for desert! :)

I voted for excellent but exhausting. We hosted it this year and it took be two days to recuperate.

I voted for pretty good!

My mother hosted (we do have the dishwasher in our appartment) but I made Turkey and potato/tomato/onion/cheese caserole!
I think it was the best turkey I ever made, if I don't say so myself! I marinated it overnight in my special sauce and it turned out prefect! It made me especailly happy because last time I made turkey it was a little dry becuase we just moved in to a new appartment and I didn't get used to the new oven yet!
(Ya know how they are all different? It gets tricky when you need to make something that is so time sensitive! Sometimes an extra 5 minutes or too high of a temprature ruins the whole bird!)

It was only the immediate family and good time was had by all!

But my late mother-in-law was greatly missed! It was the first thanksgiving without her! My Father in Law was upset and didn't even want to come but we made him! He would have just sat home alone, cried and had a few vodka shots! NOT a good way to spend Thanksgiving! I told him that it's his decision, of cource, but we will sat a plate for him, because thanksgiving is the day you spend with your FAMILY!
So he was with us and had a good time! He loved my turkey!

So, overall it was a very good day!

Excellent. I was in Jamaica getting a tan

Neva, no one asked you, show off. Got any peekshures to share with us

Went to San Diego, went to Sea World and other places, but the best part was I saw my grandfather after 10 yrs.
