This is a great month,I love to cook so Thanksgiving dinner is always a treat I always get preparations done early,I watch grocers ads for the best price I have always bought Honeysuckle White turkey but tasted a Butter ball last year that was baked at 250• For hours it was probably the best I've tasted so I just may break tradition this year. - love my own personal tradition never having children I've always had an intimate dinner for 2 unless I have the clan over and the clan stopped about 5yrs ago but I always buy everythin early then the night before Thanksgiving I put music on and bake the pies and other deserts then I put the turkey in the oven before going to bed then its done when I get up I then make the stuffing separately but use the drippings every year its a success. I remember when my niece was probably 5yrs old she was spending the night when I was washing the bird I sat him up like a baby and danced him around-she remembers that still today and she's in her 30s we pretended we had our own cooking show gee I could have been rich Paula Dean I had the idea before food network....Fond memories of Thanksgiving past. Now I need to check my spices and head to the Amish spice store where I buy bulk
