Nice!!!

Yep...Mom starts cooking 3-4 days in advance of those holidays. She then refuses to cook for at least a week afterwards. To use her words, those meals are each a labor of love. Thanksgiving and Christmas for us is spent in the kitchen, with a brief retreat to the dining room (using the nice Lenox china) for "The Meal" followed by more loitering in the kitchen.

We all contribute a little though - I've somehow inherited the gravy duties on Thanksgiving...no pressure

That’s how my grandma and mom used to pronounce it-I pronounce it that way to honor them

This is the bottom of "my" hill...

The views were great, despite the weather.

But it never does...!

There was that one time it congealed into pudding though (too much roux).

I use a whisk and beat those fukrs out of existence.

Never? When it’s slow at work, Frankenstein n I sometimes have a lunch date wandering around ours.

I’m giggling.

Unstoppably.

Also, speaking like a pirate.

Nice to have a close family for the holidays

My Mom was really big on stressing that. We moved around a lot, Dad often went on ahead of us. She made it a point to stress that no matter what happens, no matter how many times we move or how long Dad has to work away from home, we were a family.

I say it a lot, but my parents are the best.

Turkey for Thanksgiving, but we do ham for Christmas...

My first choice is Turkey for thanksgiving and Christmas, ham for Easter.

Hubby votes ham for all things.
