Thanksgiving

Need some good reading? Check out the latest Carnival of Homeschooling. It's chock full of great articles. The theme this week is Thanksgiving. Totally apropos, eh?

When polled the only thing the kids all agreed on for Thanksgiving was "Pies."
We're having pumpkin, banana cream and pecan.

My patient but carnivorous husband wanted to be assured that lots of protein was on the menu. They'll be Turkey, but this year we are roasting an organic, hormone-free, free  range bird.
To complement the main dish we'll be serving up
Cranberry- orange relish
Relish tray
Spinach salad
Sweet Potato souffle
NM corn
Refrigerator rolls
Deviled Eggs
Cheese Ball

Drinks will consist of home-made grape juice.

Dessert will be aforementioned pies and pumpkin spice lattes.

What's on your menu?

Your look delicious! I love deviled eggs and *never* make them!
My planned menu, so far anyway:

Cranberry-nut-orange bread
Organic Goosemobile fresh turkey
Celery-bread-sage-dressing
Party Potatoes
Minced meat pie
Pumpkin pie

Number Seven had fun with her guests last night! Lively crew! And thanks again for the nomination...

Turkey, sausage dressing, broccoli, green bean casserole, cornbread, mashed potatoes, mocha cake with kahlua frosting. I think that is it. I went simple this year. Happy Thanksgiving
