Thinking about the Holidays

I can't believe it's that time of year again. Halloween, Princess' Birthday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years! This is the time of year when I really miss having my family around. Husker's job (once again) will hinder us from traveling home to spend the holidays with family. Last Thanksgiving we had a couple over to enjoy the feast with us. Now that we're in the Swamp it's not to easy to invite people over. I guess I will cook again this year, I really love doing it, we just have so much leftover because I insist on cooking EVERYTHING that I had growing up! Turkey, Honey baked Ham, Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes, Sweet Potato Pie, Stuffing, Cranberries & more...oh I'm getting hungry!! The best part is dessert! Pecan Pie, Derby Pie, Chess Pie!! I love having Turkey and Cranberry sandwiches afterwards! Yum!! Less than a month away... I'm thinking maybe I should do a "Mock Thanksgiving" just as a refresher! hahaha
