This was my very first year to host Thanksgiving. Y'all, I literally lost sleep over it! I was absolutely terrified that I would end up with a turkey that more closely resembled the cutting floor of the lumber department of Home Depot than the moist delicious meat that it was supposed to be. Fortunately, I had my mom (Mema) here to guide me step by step.
Here are my mom and I with the bird. See how golden and delicious it looks?! I was so excited and relieved! We rounded out our turkey feast with mashed potatoes, cornbread dressing, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce and homemade rolls. For dessert, a traditional pumpkin pie. It was YUMMY, in my humble, yet accurate opinion! For my next big project: baking a real pumpkin to make homemade pumpkin filling. I'm definitely seeing some pumpkin bread in my near future.

Congrats, you're a grown up now! Check out www.pickyourown.org I used it to make punkin pie out of our fairytale punkin!
Man, I wish I had bought it, and then gave it to you. And then..... you know what remark I would make? Don't you? Don't you? Oh it's just too punny.
Looks delicious! You go girl :)
