Wednesday- Giving Thanks

Today I thought I would share my menu. If you even want to call it that. On Thanksgiving day we will be going to my sister's house to have my side of the family's get together and then on Saturday we go to my In-laws for hubby's side. So I just thought I would share what I am going to bring. :D

On Thursday I am bringing whole wheat bread, white rolls, and.....a two layer chocolate cake with ganache (Sp?) icing!!! My mom wants pumpkin pie, but I know not everyone will be in the mood for pumpkin or they may want a taste of something else. Hopefully I will remember to take a picture to post. On Saturday my MIL asked that I bring a salad. Not sure exactly what it will be yet, but I bet it will have onions and/or garlic. :D

To join the Giving thanks week go over to Kelli's at kellishouse.blogspot.com :)

Your meals sounds delicious to me.
I love Thanksgiving meals. All that yummy food. MMNN!

You'll have to pop over to my site if you get a chance. I've posted a few recipes on my cooking blog.
Today I'm sharing a Thanksgiving book that we read with the kids.

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn'

Last Saturday I had the chance to do something I had never done before. I put together a gingerbread house with my MIL and my children. My MIL made the gingerbread and then she had me help her assemble it and then decorate it. We didn't finish it all, but we hope to finish it this afternoon since she has the day off. I am pretty proud of myself. Next year maybe the children and I can do this as a school project/activity. So...here is the gingerbread house in all it's glory. I hope to post a finished

Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa
