Favorite part of the Thanksgiving Meal: Stuffing. Not too moist, not too dry. Hubby makes it with chestnuts and stuffing. Very yummy.
Least favorite part of the meal: Pumpkin pie. Hate the stuff. I'm not into any of the winter squashes nor the yams or sweet potatoes.
Anything new in the meal this year: No. We're very traditional.
Dishes that we don't make anymore, but I'll always miss them: The only things that are different from my childhood are fancy stuffing instead of plain and wheat rolls instead of Wonderbread rolls. I can't say that either of these changes are bad.
Things I am thankful for this year: my new daughters, my great hubby, the fact that my parents and siblings will be here for Thanksgiving. It's the first T-day that I will spend with the entire family of origin in about 5 years.
Things I will miss this year: My grandparents, especially Grandma A.; my sister's kids (who will be with their father for T-day); being able to sleep all day.
How would you answer?
In other news, my MIL is here this weekend (she has to go back home before T-day), and we are trying something new. We're having Turducken tomorrow night as a prelude to T-day. It should be interesting.

I need a full report on the turducken. I've always wanted to try one!
That's quite a prelude!
And sleeping all day is just a distant memory. Ahhhh - the good old days. These days sleeping till 8AM feels like I've slept all day.
Have a lovely day with your family!
