For once

I don't have to make Thanksgiving dinner! Or even any kind of pie or side dish. I am off the hook. Don't get me wrong, I love to cook but finding time to sit down and cook anything worth eating with 4 kids, is a huge job in itself.
A 2 hour cake turns into about 4 hours once we you have two children wanting to help mix/bake it, lick the spoons, frost/decorate it, then fly the coop when it comes time to clean up. Sometimes, I just have a craving for a nice big slab of chocolate cake and I want to bake it fast so I can eat it. Not have it be a lesson in baking to my younger children, selfish, I know.

Tomorrow I will be partaking in the best foods my family has to offer. Everything from turkey and ham to stromboli and whipped potatoes with my grandmothers homemade grazy...MMmMmm!
Hope everyone has the happiest of Thanksgiving with an abundance of love and family!
