Oh my, @Right_in_Virginia! although I am a cheesecake "purist" I will occasionally have cherry topped...but this sounds delicious! Wish I had the recipe. :laugh:

My next brother of four, I am the oldest, invited me for Thanksgiving. I reminded
him that I hadn't taken the stab.


I remember many Thanksgivings at his home as well as nearly a thousand
phenomenal meals there. Last year they had the scare and my Sister in
Law had my brother call and disinvite me. The concern was from their daughter
in law who had a neighbor in difficulty.

My brother and Sandy his wife do all the tradition. Cooking is their hobby. I will
see his sons and their grandchildren.

Our whole family are football watchers and players. No football games this year
as we have banned the NFL and professional sports from our homes. Just
conversation. We like it better that way.

Happy Thanksgiving for all the Lords Blessings.

Food for the soul! My wife has rels in southern California,and they've been so terrified since the plague started we haven't been able to see them since the beginning of 2020.  We're filthy, unvaxxed Arizonans, and this they cannot abide.

I am a big sweet potato fan.

I'm assuming for corbe's sake that the "anything else" includes weed (in the form of edibles).

Looks good to me, but I haven't tried it yet.

Going to start baking tomorrow -- going to make a couple of loaves of zucchini bread and then pies in a couple of days.  I thought about doing a pumpkin cheesecake, but decided to stick just to a traditional pumpkin pie. I bought some tart shells for the leftover pumpkin batter that I always wind up with.  I've never tried the pre-made tart shells, so we'll see how they turn out.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

@Right_in_Virginia

Finally someone who agrees with me! The truth is, I'm not too keen on that many desserts as I don't really have a sweet tooth. If there's some cheesecake, I might cut a sliver of that, but I just don't gravitate toward the dessert table. That being said, I'll happily follow up my meal with another helping of dressing. Can't get enough of that.

I have to have both pecan and pumpkin pies, in multiples, with plenty of ice cream.

One year my older sis made me a pecan pie, but she didn't leave it in the oven long enough and it didn't set. It made the best ice cream topping though.

Any food shared with loved ones... You left off Smashed Tators/gravy (cream potatoes, whipped potatoes, etc), so I clicked turkey with the trimmings.... Turkey gravy ranks up there with the best.

We are kindred spirits @AllThatJazzZ   I'm usually the one heating a plate of turkey, gravy and yams as my dessert.    :laugh:

I am baking two pies. One apple and one pumpkin. I’m thinking of a graham cracker crust.

Apple and Boston Cream are my favorites. My parents like pecan pies but I never developed a taste for it.

I have cousins in the South and every year they would send up a key lime pie and a pecan pie.

I’m not crazy about key lime, but I like a lemon custard pie.

We had cranberry sauce as a kid. I remember the squish sound as it
dropped from the can. Many years later I put it together that the sauce
came from a berry. I didn't like it so paid little attention.

Slow on the uptake.
