Wishing everyone a WONDERFUL and safe Thanksgiving.
We are going solo. We have a small turkey breast, salad, mashed potatoes and cornbread stuffing. I will make a pumpkin pie and MAYBE some apple thingies for hubby.
Speaking of, I am so excited, as he is going with me to our book club tonight. He will get to meet all of my new friends.
If it is rerun again, watch the history of the first Tahnksgiving onthe History channel. very interesting.
