Thanksgiving Dinner Plans

In the United States, we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow. Having been born on Thanksgiving Day a half century ago, Thanksgiving is just about my very favorite holiday.

We're having a small celebration tomorrow ... just my two youngest daughters, my sweet husband and myself. As you can see, we're keeping the cooking easy by using boxed mixes and canned goodies rather than going out and hunting down a turkey, baking bread just to turn it into stuffing, and cooking lumpy mashed potatoes.

Not for me! I'll do it more simply, please.

It is a rather traditional menu, though ... unlike some years when we make lasagna!

BREAKFAST
Bisquick coffee cake
Fresh fruit

MUNCHIES
Peanuts
Olives
Veggies
Wheat crackers with hummus
