Happy Thanksgiving!
It's the most revered food holiday and is done every year by my grandmother. She does the turkey, the rolls and the pies each year (We were all thankful that there was sugar in the pumpkin pie rather than salt...pumpkin pie '06 was a prime example of what would happen if you put salt instead of sugar in...yuck!) The Turkey was amazing, the rolls were perfect, the kitchen smelled amazing.
Today is a day to be thankful. I'm thankful that I have amazing friends and family, a job and the ability to cook. I can definitely tell that even though I'm only house sitting for the week, I will be looking forward to January when I'm here more long-term.
Now as I prepare for an early night (working at 3am has its ups and downs...) I have the aroma of sweet pumpkin bars in the oven compliments of Paula Deen. Every Black Friday, each of us brings something to share while on break...I decided on pumpkin bars -Easy to make, amazing, and fitting for this time of the year.
So as you enjoy the rest of Turkey day, whether it be with family, watching the football game, or preparing for the chaos that is Black Friday, remember to taste, not just eat today.
Until next time,
