Thanksgiving Table

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a very relaxing day...or at least I did. 

Ok, don't hate me, but Mr. Fanatic did ALL the cooking. 
Yup, ever bit of it. 
I am a lucky girl. If it were up to me I would make....reservations. 
Seriously!

There were three of us this year~ the first holiday without our oldest daughter, who moved to California last May.

My youngest daughter and I set the table. I usually set the table for a holiday several days in advance, but we didn't start this year until the turkey was almost done.





Mr. F. brought home flowers for the table on Wednesday, as well as a bouquet for me and one for my daughter. Ah, so sweet!


Yum!





I took this photo with my cell phone...I know...cell phone at the table? I was texting our daughter in California and sent her this photo.

Today was a carb free for all! No counting carbs today...It was glorious!





I couldn't wait for dessert.

Mr. Fanatic made a pumpkin pie.


I bought a little apple pie at Trader Joe's, since I don't care for pumpkin pie.

I had two helpings of apple pie, ice cream AND whipped cream. It was sooooooooo good.
We had our meal at around 3 pm and watched movies all afternoon.

Hope you counted your blessings yesterday. I know I did.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

  7. I agree: no pumpkin pie for me either! Pecan all the way!! Actually, I'm not a pie person at all.. much prefer cake. And, since it was my birthday that day, I got to "have my cake and eat it too"!! And with this glorious weather, it was a perfect day...

  8. Hey Pam- this looks wonderful! You did a great job and I love seeing your dining room (with the new paint color) it's so fresh and inviting! I love pumpkin pie and apple pie! I would have had both! I just came home from a 4 day marathon with the family. We had a good Thanksgiving but it's good to be back home!
