This is a first for us. Tim and I are celebrating Thanksgiving in Texas for the first time, also I'm doing all the cooking for the first time. We chose to keep it simple with a turkey roast along with stuffing, corn, mashed potatoes and crescent rolls. Ideally I would have liked to do things a little more extravagant, but where as it was just the two of us enjoying the feast it was just simple.
Everything turned out great, and we enjoyed the food. There were just the small things that we miss from years past like Tim's mothers homemade rolls, and my momma's pumpkin pie....mmmmmm, yummy yummy!
We did have pie, but we only did one. Again just the two of us to eat it all up.... we bought a Marie Calendars banana cream pie. One of our favorites.
We did get to enjoy conversation with our families via video chat later in the evening. It sure was great to see everyone.
After today's experiences I definitely have learned, and have ideas for next year but now we get ready for Christmas. I'm getting the tree up and decorated by the weekends end.
