Don’t you just love Thanksgiving? I do! Yes, it’s a lot of work if you’re going to host (like me), but it’s such a wonderful time of the year. It’s a good time to share my favorite Thanksgiving side dishes. The week leading up to Thanksgiving can be crazy busy, but I love every minute […]
Pumpkin Cake Roll Is a Favorite Fall Dessert
September 4, 2019 by 19 Comments
Pumpkin Cake Roll is full of flavor and filled with a delicious cream cheese filling. It’s the perfect Thanksgiving Day dessert. Fall has arrived and there’s a chill in the air! I’ve always wanted to say that, but here in the south, the chill hasn’t arrived yet. That fact doesn’t stop me from thinking about […]
FREE Thanksgiving Planner Printable
October 17, 2016 by 29 Comments
I was browsing through an old cookbook when I found a Thanksgiving menu from years ago. It’s written on a piece of stained, torn paper. The ink is faded and I can barely read it.

Before I scored my huge dining room table, I always needed a separate table for the grand kids on Thanksgiving. To be honest, I’ve always loved styling the kids’ space as much as I do the adult table. Currently I have two grands that are 5 and under, so I decided to go ahead and […]

Can you believe that Thanksgiving is right around the corner? I’ve asked myself that question several times over the past week! Yet I’d be the first to admit that I’m so busy with Christmas activities and decorating, that I’ve almost glossed over Thanksgiving completely. Don’t get me wrong. I’ve got my menu planned. I’ve got […]

I feel like a magazine editor today! It’s October (at least it was when I wrote this) and I did my Thanksgiving Day Tablescape photo shoot this morning. Too bad I didn’t have an assistant to put it all away after the shoot. At least I’m not taking Thanksgiving pics in the summer. That would […]

Thanksgiving Day is a Happy Day!
November 7, 2012 by 13 Comments
I remember it as if it was yesterday – the Thanksgiving Musical at my children’s school. The kids come bounding onto the stage. They are fully arrayed in their Pilgrim and American Indian costumes. They are singing Thanksgiving Day is a happy day when we say thank you, Lord . . . And every time […]
