Happy Holidays Everyone.....


Tailgating, Texas Style


my entire family was together yesterday,
my son, daughter-in-law, their 2 small children, Sheriff & Archer,
my daughter & her fiance,
one of my best guy friends in the world,
a professor from the University of Houston,
with Jeanne & Henri,  who are the best cooks I know...

it was a lovely day and went on into the evening.

i made the cornbread dressing, the turkey gravy (my own version which is
actually quite good (no livers, yuck) ), 2 pumpkin chiffon pies, homemade
cranberry sauce, and a chocolate/grand marnier bundt cake to DIE for.

i fell into bed at 10:30 last night, counting all my blessings...

i wish everyone could be as fortunate as I, and as happy...

love to all ...

    Marsha, I am happy you had such a lovely day. The joy of Thanksgiving is that we get together with loved ones, eat specially prepared food -- often with a long family history -- and enjoy each others' company. Simple. Sweet.
    Best...Victoria

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
