Parade

This picture is from the Thanksgiving parade (2011). It is a close up of one of the Clydesdale horses.

Yum!

Deep fried turkey made by my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. One of the tastiest turkeys I have ever had! I had no idea that deep frying a turkey meant it only takes 45 minutes. All the time I have wasted.... I should get a deep fryer and start frying everything :)

Happy Thanksgiving

We were in charge of appetizers this year. My daughter and I made: Ants on a log, dates with peanut butter, pilgrim hats (no buckles, so my daughter called them top hats), sugared cinnamon almonds and a shrimp ring.

If you are interested in how to make some of these items, here is a couple:

• Sugared Cinnamon Almonds are on one of my favorite cooking sites A Year of Slow Cooking
• The pilgrim hats come from Family Fun

Hope all of you have a great Thanksgiving!

Turkeys!

These critters jumped in front of my car, so I just had to take a picture. I guess the turkeys are trying to escape before Thanksgiving.
