Thanksgiving dinner 2024, just Laura and I for dinner today, doing a little different Thanksgiving dinner, Elk Roast in the Dutch Oven on a wood fire with celery, onions, carrots & sweet taters, pumpkin pie for dessert, Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

We're doing something different as well.
5 of us for dinner, including Linda's sister, bro-in-law and niece.
Instead of a turkey, I will be cooking a BBQ Tri-tip on the Traeger, mashed potatoes, two different kinds of dressing, yams, the obligatory pumpkin pie and whatever else they put together.  I quiver to think what those foodies will come up with.
Happy Thanksgiving to all...

Christmas this year will be at my Son's place with both sides of the family and dinner will be a taco bar! we did that a couple years ago and was a big hit, I'm going to use the last 3 roasts from last years deer to make shredded taco meat and will make some green chicken taco meat as well.

Just returned from a nearby fav Hungarian and German restaurant. Hot pretzel knots with bier cheese and cranberry sours to start. Wife had the sweet/sour hot bacon slaw but then went with traditional turkey and all the usual fixins. Mine was the same slaw then Wiener schnitzel and spaetzle, plus red cabbage. Clausthaler NA's were the drink of choice. Bavarian creme puff with chocolate drizzle and powdered sugar finished off the meal, and us too. Grrrrrreat!

Took the family to a Brazilian Steakhouse for a different Thanksgiving dinner. never ate so many different meats in my life. Quite expensive but worth it. My second time there and i was more adventurous this time.

Brazilian huh? that sounds interesting.

The trick to getting your money's worth (sort of) is to become a real carnivore and pass up all the side dishes.  Well, maybe a small salad (with bacon on top), and wait for the fellows with the meat and a knife to come around and make sure you get samples of everything they have.
When you find your favorites, GO FOR THE GUSTO!!!!
Too bad they cannot stick hamburgers on those metal prongs.

Had roast chicken, mashed potatoes, the obligatory green bean casserole and gravy. Not fancy but enough for the two of us.  Finished off with pumpkin pie after allowing the meal to settle.  The latter came out less than perfect but still edible and my Sweetie claimed it was delicious.

After the fact I saw in today's paper that I should have read Psalm 100 prior to asking the blessing.  I hope I am forgiven for neglecting that!

Left overs are on the menu for tonight.  AS they said on Heehaw many moons ago, Y-u-m Yum!

A little chilly here this am 31F high today is 40F so it's a good night from some old school Chicken @ Veggie stew with dumplings, that makes 3 meals for the 2 of us!

[Winter Hawk]

Turkey, vegetable & rice soup here.  One frozen jalapeno from the garden gave it a nice bit of heat.  We'll be eating from it again!

One of my super salads.  About 3/4 package of salad mix, one can of albacore tuna, a dozen cherry tomatoes, one huge white mushroom, a large avocado, sharp cheddar cheese, a couple of sweet Italian peppers and a homemade dressing of mayonnaise and ketchup and garlic powder.
We have decided that having a salad for dinner is easier on the digestive system than a heavy meal.  Ah, the joys of getting older. 
Oh well, at least we can still tolerate a hearty breakfast and a nice lunch.

Except for the dressing, that sounds pretty good John, not into French or Thousand Island type dressing, some flavored rice wine vinegar or even Italian works for me. I have to watch the sodium intake. Grrrrrrrrr fries with no salt, not much fun!
