Am thinking of making this mushroom pie for the first time:



But may end up making Turkey wings and gravy, with cornbread dressing, and a green veggie. Haven't decided.

Throughout the day I will count my blessings, miss my family, and enjoy my last warm November in this femme cave.

Hoping everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving week.

I LOVE MUSHROOM PIE. Oh my. Enjoy it!

Hopefully Thanksgiving will involve Daddy, me, and my daughter. If none of us get put on quarantine between now and then. We will zoom with my parents and sister in law and nephews at some point. Over the next day or two I'm going to make some of the traditional dishes that I always make for Thanksgiving and leave them on doorsteps for my parents and Sister in law. (wearing a mask and gloves while cooking) I will make my mom fudge bars that she loves and my Grandma's corn spoon bread that we all love. For my sister in law and my parents I will make a dish that I have made almost every year since I realized it got my brother to eat Brussels Sprouts (Sorry cover your eyes for a minute Gemme) I roast them with fresh cranberries and top with a confetti of crumbled bacon and roasted pecans. My brother loved them. I couldn't get myself to make them last year without him here to eat them but I'll try for this year. For my nephews, I will drop them off a vat of my pasta that they love so much. It's very simple but they lose their minds for it.

At home we are planning a simple fish dinner. My daughter is baking bread, Daddy wants to get big lobster tails, and I will make some vegetable sides.

I hope everyone stays safe this year, though it can feel lonely.

I will be going over Wednesday, arriving when she does, post work, & we will make our dishes ahead, as many as we can. She ordered a 12-15 lb turkey from Tomato Express..with apricot/cranberry/apple/walnut & saged stuffing! She is making a greenbean casserole, mashed potatoes, and gravy..all vegan. I am making "our" mock potato salad....cauliflower, dill pickle relish, roasted acorn squash, crushed red pepper flakes, S & P, vegenaise, green onions, white onion....YUM YUM YUM.

Will be her daughter & I eating turkey, as C. is vegan. BUT will freeze most of my portion!

We are so excited....I go there alternately with her coming here, weekends. This is "our" weekend getaway!! I will keep this apartment for a few more months....as it affords us escape & privacy!

Wishing everyone a pleasant week ahead. Celebrate safely. We have a VERY limited "bubble" & we are extremely sanitary...so feel safe being there Thursday, then back here Friday til Sunday!!
