Well, here was the lineup at my daughter's house. From left, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, spiced peaches, sweet/sour onions, turkey with brussels sprouts, stuffing, three sauces (Cumberland, canned cranberry, Mama Stamberg's cranberry) and three pies (cherry, pumpkin/walnut and pecan). Rolls and appetizers were on the table.

And all of this with a baby strapped to her body!
I sure hope your daughter only had to cook the least part of the stuff.

I like her kitchen. The faucet looks very similar to mine.

You noticed that little detail! She made the rolls (ahead of time) and the mashed potatoes (that morning). It doesn't sound like much but believe me, there was a mountain of mashed potatoes and a mountain of rolls...it took 12 cups of flour to make those rolls!! The two boys "helped" and grandma cleaned up afterwards. Grandma also cooked and brought all the other food and took most of the leftovers and serving plates back again to her own house!!

I like her kitchen. The faucet looks very similar to mine.
I think she bought that faucet and installed it herself.

What lovely Thanksgivings you all had, and no stinting on the food!   ;D  Happy belated greetings to all!  :-*

Here's the setup at our apartment, which many Brokies have passed through. I think the tulips made it fab. Those are chocolate pilgrim favors on the napkins.  On the menu: Blood orange mimosas, turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, cauliflower au gratin, Brussels sprouts with butternut squash, cranberry sauce with golden raisins and pecans, pumpkin pie with whipped cream, apple pie with salted caramel ice cream and chocolate chip cheesecake. Glorious!

I'm sure anything served on that table would taste delicious!! Thanks for posting, dear High Priestess! I sure wish I could have spent more time catching up with you in Tucson!

We must schedule another 10-year observance. Wasn't there talk of having one in the NY area?
