PERSONAL//: [giving thanks | 2008]

i hope you all had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

this year my parents headed down to have thanksgiving dinner with me, daren and his family. i decided that it was time for me to learn how to cook Thanksgiving dinner so i asked daren's mom if i could help out. so next year the turkey is all me! lol daren's mom likes to do 2 small 13 lb turkeys instead of one big one. which makes a lot of sense, it keep the meat from drying out, more dark meat, etc. normally she bakes them both, but this year she tired roasting one too. both we're very good, but i think i still like the over baked turkey better... its a little juicier. 

we also made homemade yukon gold mash potatoes, green been casserole, stuffing, etc. YUM! and aunty marcia bought us Thanksgiving flowers.. aren't they beautiful?!
