Had a great day yesterday - started cooking at 8:00 and everything was ready and we ate at 3:00. Took the turkey out and left it all sealed in the bag for an hour while we baked the dressing, yams, broccolli casserole and then the rolls (mine were a little over done but still fluffy on inside!). Baked the pies the night before and ate them at 6:00!
I have never had such lumpy mashed potatoes and lumpy gravy as well. Guess it was my lumpy day - but they were really good

. The mini marshmallows rose so high on the bottom shelf they engulfed the upper rack - really funny but they were yummy!
When Dinner was done the kids (son, dil, gs and gd) did the
dishes while John and I sat and watched some of the Cowboy/Raiders game. (Cowboys played great - finally a decent season!)
Have a 20 lb turkey with only one breast gone and one thigh - so lots and lots of left overs. Today I will cut it up (safely in fridge for now) and make a big pot of soup. Probably turkey enchiladas tomorrow night and again later next week.
Aren't relatives fun! Had a bil for 15 years who always disappeared after a meal and would go into a bedroom and take an hour or so nap!! and on an on about them!!!
Off to get my nails done and maybe a little stop somewhere to shop if parking lot is not packed - would like to go to Target!
