We had the traditional Thanksgiving pizza! :p
I flew home from Prudhoe Bay yesterday and the flight was 3 hours late. Last thing any of us wanted to do was cook, so.....

I love to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV. I am the only one who cooks. So we get the precooked dinner from the grocery store, which permits me to watch the parade.

turkey (NOT stuffed)
herb stuffing
butternut squash (mashed)
mashed potatoes (white potatoes, not sweet potatoes)
cranberry sauce
dinner rolls
pumpkin pie (sugar free)

I made some green beans with slivered almonds to go with.

My brother brought an apple pie (sugar free), and Rocky Road ice cream.

We didn't start the pumpkin pie until this evening. I had ordered an apple, and the market messed up. We enjoy it, but the apple is the traditional for us.

In a few days, when there is room in the fridge, I will make "our" dinner:
roasted chicken ( we really don't like turkey, too gamey)
candied sweet potatoes (made with Sweet N Low brown sugar substitute
meat stuffing with cashews
home made cranberry sauce with orange
some non starch veggie, not sure which one I will make.

Turkey
Squash
Mashed Potatoes
Roll

and for dessert,
Apple Pie
Pumpkin cookies

and later a Tollhouse cookie.

Others at the table also had stuffing, carrots, green beans, cranberry sauce ... and maybe something else, but I couldn't have those because of my allergies.

I went to my friend's house, and she was cooking for herself, her husband, myself and another friend of ours.... and 4 teenage stepdaugters! We had turkey
asparagus and snow peas
homemade creamed corn
mashed potatoes
sweet potato casserole
and..... 3 kinds of stuffing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:
(one was the traditional, another was traditional but with very hot sausage for her husband, and the last was Stove Top since thatis all that one stepdaughter will eat)
and apple pie ala mode!

It wasn't the "traditional" Thanksgiving dinner that I had as a kid.... but it was DELICIOUS! And the house smelled wonderufl when I arrived!

I made the turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes.

My guests brought a veggie/dip platter, rolls, green bean casserole, macaroni and cheese casserole and a broccoli/cauliflower/cheese casserole as well as sodas. Several folks brought wine too. ;) :cool:

For dessert I made cranberry bread and I picked up a store bought pumpkin pie (due to a Wednesday evening pie disaster in my oven....don't ask! :rolleyes: ) and my SIL's fiance baked a yummy butter cake. (Ya gotta love a man that can cook! LOL!)

There were 13 adults and my four month old nephew. If my daughter and her family had been here (they were at her in-laws) I would have had four more! :eek:

I couldn't even begin to name every dish we had. We had one table of food and another table of desserts.
But I can tell you what I ate: ham, mashed taters, corn, dinner roll, and another kind of potatoes that my cousin made with cheese and yumminess. :D
And for dessert (not all at once) I had chocolate cake, cherry cheesecake and the next day some coconut pie. Oh, and some chocolate my SIL brought from her work, a chocolate factory.
