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 it’s from a period in time when everyone wrote in cursive. Thankfully, this year, I have a Thanksgiving Planner that covers everything AND as a […]

November 3, 2014 by 38 Comments
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 […]

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. They would come bounding out onto the stage fully arrayed in their Pilgrim and American Indian costumes, singing Thanksgiving Day is a happy day when we say thank you Lord . . . And every time the word Thanksgiving has been uttered since […]
Pumpkin Cake Roll Is a Favorite Fall 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 Pumpkin Cake Roll. I’ll be making Pumpkin Cake Roll again real soon! It will be one of the desserts I serve […]
