Thanksgiving Day Greetings

This is what I wish I looked like while preparing Thanksgiving dinner.
I won't be making pies, however...I'm picking them up at a favorite local restaurant.
Two custard pies...please!
My fave!
 
I will be making this however. Doesn't it looks scrumptious!
I've never made it before but will be doing this recipe.
Brussel sprouts, pecans, cranberries, blue cheese sauteed in balsamic vinegar.
It sounds like the perfect Thanksgiving food to me!
I always intend on making these rolls...but never do...and won't this year either.
Maybe one day...when I have more time.
Always intend to do this too! It is the cutest!

Just look at these little dears patiently waiting to get their Thanksgiving on!
Adorable pics from a fellow weenie lover.

Oh...here they are about to take part in the feast!
I'm crazy for pilgrim clothes. Really...I'd wear that get up in a heart beat.
Actually I could easily pull together a look like this from things already existing in my wardrobe.
I always suggest we all come dressed as Pilgrims and Indians to Thanksgiving dinner
but no one goes for it.
I think it's a great idea and one day we WILL do it!
 
See? Just precious clothing. I love all except the cap. 
If I dressed as a pilgrim...I'd wear these shoes! 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
TO YOU AND YOUR'S

I hope it is full of good food and good family and friends.

Setting the Table for Thanksgiving

I cannot believe Thanksgiving is almost upon us!
I've been way busy with the new job and didn't decorate for Thanksgiving this year.
That photo above shows the burlap table runner I made last year.
Instructions on how to make it can be found here.

I have been thinking a lot about my Christmas decor however.
I was sick to death of having a white tree. Way over it.
The tree I want is $300.
I can't do that....but I bought a cheap green tree the other day and I have a plan for it.

If it comes together as planned... it will be good. 

I'm ready to get started on it. 
But it will have to wait till after Thanksgiving.
