behind again and the world is racing away!

Where did I leave off?  I'm going to have to look I've been cooking bunches and we are preparing to make holiday gifts.  We made lots of thanksgiving decorations.  

Turkey Tetrazzini!  
Recipe was a bit labor intensive and i wasn't delighted with it when it was on the table.  Everyone ate it and said it was good, but agreed something was missing.  I ate the leftovers at work 2 days later and it was amazing!!


Tony and I had an evening in while Haylee was at Grammies!  He made me Yummy chocolate Cherry Martini's and we played Video games!


Haylee and I made turkey goblets for thanksgiving dinner!



Grampy liked his!

We made Chinese food for thanksgiving dinner again.
turkey wonton soup
turkey egg rolls
stuffing egg rolls
porcupine balls
sweet and sour pork
General Tso's turkey
and my floppy pecan pie.  I'll get it right someday!





Last night i made gingerbread and it came out perfect!!!

I'm running to catch up...

The kitchens been hoping since there is  a chill in the air.  i started this blog a week ago before I went away with the ladies for a weekend in the woods off the grid!  How lovely it was, but it goes by way too quick.  As did this week, did you see where it went?



I bought and planted Garlic from Snell Family Farm I've never planted my own and I would have liked to plant more but the snow we had sorta threw me for a loop.  



Nothing better then baked mac n cheese.  


Well, Maybe hot cocoa!


Stuffed squash with butter, cinnamon and apples.  
Pork roast rubbed with cloves. 
Garlic mashed potatoes.



Pumpkin carving YAH!





Chicken Enchiladas! 





I made orange cupcakes with nutella frosting!


I'm behind by a week or so, so I'll try to get another one out soon, Tony has been stalking deer and I've been baking late at night.  Planning our  Christmas gifts As i have decided this year I am not buying anything but supplies!
