Thanksgiving morning, November 27th, 2020,
began as a rather misty foggy day....a bit warmer than normal.
However, soon, the clouds made way for a lovely, sunny day!
This is our virtual visit to Atlanta.....

Miss M set a lovely Thanksgiving table for three in her formal dining room.

She sent me this photo of the Turkey butter, which I have always wanted to buy...
I think next year I will certainly add this to our table....
even though she remembered the butter, she forgot the dinner rolls......

Son-in-law Jay, once again, fried up a moist and delicious turkey!!
One of our sons, decided to smoke his turkey and boy
did it look divine...he told us he was rather proud of how it turned out...
if you have ever smoked a turkey...it's an all day process and requires
a lot of basting and tending to....great job, Nick!!!

Thanksgiving Day was very quiet at our house....
I set a very casual table this year as it would just be the darling
and me, with our youngest coming in on Saturday from Austin.
This would be our day to give thanks for our blessings.....

My tradition has always been to bake our favorites on the day
of the feast, but this year, I kept it to a minimum and baked
a loaf of scrumptious pumpkin bread!

First off-What a fantastic picture of you and hubby! You are a BEAUTIFUL couple!! We, too, celebrated simply and visited via Facetime with all the kids. Luckily, we are all healthy at this point..and even though we missed family physically, we are joined heart and soul to each other.
ReplyDeleteI, too, broke out of my mold and decorated early for Christmas...and you know what? It's okay and fun to see all the lights!
Have a wonderful week, sweet friend. xo Diana
