What a feast it was! Turkey and cornbread dressing, goose and wild rice, gravy, spinach casserole, corn, sweet potato casserole, green beans, stuffed eggs, cranberry sauce, black olives, cheese and crackers and rolls. My daughters provided the desserts this year. Older daughter brought two things. I'm not sure what either was called, but both were delicious. One was a pie with cream cheese and condensed milk and the other was chocolate cheesecake balls dipped in chocolate, drizzled with more chocolate. Younger daughter tried a new pumpkin cheesecake recipe that turned out great. I'll leave you with a picture of it.... yum!!

Thanksgiving 2009
We normally have extended family join us for our Thanksgiving feast, but this year it was just my husband, me, our son and two daughters, a significant other, and our granddaughter. We had a wonderful day filled with food and fun. We ate, played board games, ate, celebrated our granddaughter's birthday (the 28th) and ate some more.

Kelly,
Glad that you had such a wonderful day with your family, which was made very special because of the celebration of your granddaughter's birthday.
The pumpkin cheescake looks delicious!

It sounds like a wonderful time was had by all and that cheesecake looks so yummy. I don't know if I'll have time to post tomorrow so an early HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your granddaughter.
Cheesecake looks wonderful and it sounds like a great day, Kelly!

Indeed, what a feast. We had one too and all of my wife's family -- 13 people in all. We will have a smaller Christmas and, frankly, that sounds pretty good right now!
I wished I liked pumpkin! That cheesecake looks wonderful but I just can't eat anything with pumpkin in it.
Yummy! We had a good dinner here, also. I spent much of the day ( most of the day ) decorating the outside of the house.
Today was spent finishing up the inside of the house and decorating the tree.
I'm told children have a way of giving you your just desserts...
