On a happier note... I have been craving Thanksgiving dinner so much lately that I finally put together a small version of it for Seth and I! We have a lot to be thankful for lately, so I thought why not?! I made stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes(Ruth's Chris style! Click on this for the recipe! So yummy! I found the recipe online and it was just like how they do it! You have to use actual sweet potatoes though, no canned stuff if you want the real thing! It was easy actually!! Seth went and picked up a fresh cooked rotisserie chicken, I know I know - but cooking a turkey is not want I wanted to do and the chicken was perfect! Anyways it all turned out great and we are still enjoying left overs and now I cannot wait for actual Thanksgiving! Here are some yummy pics...
Why does it look so much better piled up on a plate? Probably cause I get to shove in my face ASAP! :) Total Carb overload! I of course could not fit it all in, but I tried! Seth and I were laughing at how tight my stomach was after, a tad uncomfortable! We took the dog for a walk later that evening in hopes of burning off some of it! LOL!

That looks so good. I have been emailing my sis today about ...Thanksgiving. I may have to make a mini version on sunday - just to test a few recipes.
So glad we are related and I have your culinary talents for the holidays! :)
So long-farewell-to your laptop. :(
Yummy, you are so funny by the way! Seriously you are ambitious. I have a really hard time getting a normal one course dinner cooked on a regular basis!
Sad about the laptop too.
Kevin always craves Thanksgiving dinner. Your's looks great. If you an awesome sweet potato recipie using the canned stuff, I have the best recipe in the world. Where are you selling your lap top parts, we have one that is completely dead also. I haven;t been able to talk myself into buying a new one, but I hate sharing the computer. ARGHHHH!
