Thanksgivng.........

So it is Thanksgiving night the festivities are over and I am pooped! I went shopping and spent $130 on groceries for Thanksgiving dinner. I cooked for 2 days and tried out some new recipes. All to eat 2 ounces at dinner.
But it was good! Except for the carrot thing yuck! What is on my plate? I was naughty and had a little garlic mashed potatoes, a spinach roll (I didn't eat it all), and a little turkey, plus the yucky carrot. 

But here is a pretty orange and sweet potato dish I made. 



And very tasty spinach ball appetizers... before they were cooked.





The family. We missed Erin, Jon and the girls. They spent the holiday with his family. We had Mikes sister, brother-in-law, niece, and Jessica our friend.



And a picture with me:-)




Anytime Mikes family gets together they start massaging each other. And Char is cute in her green shoes, green phone, and green Slytherin jacket:-)




And Jessica came early and helped me cook she was a big help, because I was winding down!




So we had a nice Thanksgiving. Very relaxed and now we are sitting on the couch watching a Christmas movie. Life is good!
