had enough?

Apparently, I haven't. I can peruse Thanksgiving post after Thanksgiving post after after-Thanksgiving post and not get tired of seeing your turkeys, cranberry sauces, and pies. What's more, I can eat our own leftovers for meal after meal after meal and still crave 'em the next day.


So, without further ado, here's (part of) our spread:


turkey--still good four days later


dressing--we don't call it stuffing unless it was actually inside the bird at some point


sauce of the cranberries


eggs of the devil


sweet potater casserole


cole slaw--the version that I've yet to match


the 4-pound box o' chocolates that we worked on all weekend...

Thank you, Thanksgiving!

  8. I went on vacation the day after Thanksgiving, so I didn't take home any leftovers. So I think I will be making another Thanksgiving dinner sometime soon!

  10. Er, need help with those chocolates?

    I'm so jealous of Thanksgiving, haha. Maybe it's just as well we don't have it in England; I'd end up eating solidly throughout November AND December, rather than just the latter...

  15. I agree---I never tire of seeing or eating Thanksgiving food, or of reading about it!

    Now, if I just had a box of chocolates to nibble on while I peruse...

  17. Great range of food and I love seeing what everyone eats for it as we don't celebrate it here. Vicarious eating if you will!

  18. Any post that starts with a block of cheese wins me over.

  19. I was tired of leftovers until I saw yours....they look so good! I completely forgot the sweet taters this year and I am still sad about it! I guess I can make them for Christmas ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Grace, everything looks sooooo good!! But I must say the "sweet potato casserole" has my full attention.... please share ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  21. It all looks so darn good Grace!!I love stuffing, I made it with potato bread this year and it turned out fantastic.

  22. Yummmmmm, dressing is my favorite part!! I'll be fixing it all again this weekend for my father-in-law.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Looks yummy! I really enjoyed all of our leftovers. Now that they are almost gone ...pass the chocolate, please! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. Your dressing looks yummy! You all did do justice to that box of chocolates too!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Doggone it I forgot to make the deviled eggs. I knew I missed something! Well we had enough with out them, maybe for Christmas then. Happy December Grace!

  26. I am not a fan of traditional Thanksgiving--my loss I know. But I will take the chocolates any old day. And your cranberry sauce--the one thing I do like--looks awesome. I could slather it on some pork chops. :)

  27. Oh yeah, I'm the same way, just had another turkey sandwich for breakfast today! Yippee!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I went through a momentary lapse where I had eaten so much food throughout the weekend that the thought of food disgusted me. Thankfully, that dreadful phase has passed and I'm back in Thanksgiving mode!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I would be glad to finish the gorgeous food shown...

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh - DUDE! I'm glad I'm not the only one. We polished off our leftover/doggy bag really quickly. I actually bought a turkey before and we're thawing it as we speak. Some people might just be coming out of a turkey coma, but I love the stuff! (I wish it were as widely available all year round. Yum!)

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  34. Apparently I'm not tired of Thanksgiving yet either and our was in October - I look at these delicious looking recipes and am creating the menu for the next holiday. I think it's called Chocolate Day. no?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm with you--I'm happy to keep peeking in on everyone's Thanksgiving spreads out of hungry curiosity. Looks like you ate very well!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Yum yum! I felt bad when I saw the coleslaw because I forgot that I promised the hubby I'd make him some this year! Yours looks tasty-do you have the recipe for it? I've never made it before! :P

    ReplyDelete
  37. I am very much like you Grace, I could eat Turkey day leftovers over and over again and never get tired of it. Now for the 4 pounds of candy..I could eat at least 3 pounds by myself.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Okay, I need to start the four pound box of chocolate tradition. How did I miss that one??

    ReplyDelete
  39. That sweet potato casserole looks divine!
