Thanksgiving 2012

My family and I had a very good Thanksgiving this year. We invited some friends over, had fun, watched some good football, and most of all ate some very good food. We decided with our friends that we would serve dinner at our place and then we would all go to their house for some delicious dessert. I really liked doing things this way because both of the families got to help each other out and enjoy the Holiday together. We kept almost all of the same dishes on the menu as we did last year and a few years back. As normal my dad cooked the turkey and also made the wonderful stuffing. My mom made the corn pudding, the green beans with shallots and bacon, the salad, and the squash. You are probably wondering who made the best part of the meal, which is the mashed potatoes, well our friends got to make them. Unfortunately I did not get to cook with my mom and dad this year. I thought that if I got in the kitchen I might mess something up. My parents have a great thing going with cooking the Thanksgiving Day meal – so I thought I would leave them alone.
One best parts of this Thanksgiving was walking over to our friend’s house after the main meal because it was snowing and pretty windy out, making it felt more like winter. This was my first progressive dinner and I really think it was a success.
