We usually dine at about 3pm. So 2.5 hours to go... trying to NOT eat until then is tough.
Funny thing about Thanksgiving... I'm not a big fan of Turkey. I don't 'dislike' it but it's nothing special to me.. hence- I smother my turkey in cranberry sauce. We also have Ham available but I eat little because it's Thanksgiving and you're supposed to eat Turkey.
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is the stuffing with gravy. I'm a carbohydrate person... bread, pasta, stuffing... everything that makes you fat.
As for dessert... I can never decide between the pumpkin pie and the pecan pie.... easy fix - I have both. At the same time!
So wishing you all a happy thanksgiving! - JamesJM
