My husband and I decided to start our family tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving at home. This is our very first time as we always celebrates the holiday with the whole family. It was also my first time preparing different Thanksgiving menu that I learned from my in-laws. Me and daughter made green bean casserole, macaroni salad, baked beans, ham, scalloped potatoes, store bought and ready to bake garlic bread, and hubby bought pumpkin pie.
I made several menus so I would know which one we like the most and eliminate the ones that we did not like very much. Next year, I will just prepare a couple of these since we don't really eat that much anyway.

We stuck with the usual - a (fresh) turkey roasted perfectly; homemade cranberries; homemade sausage stuffing; bread maker fresh bread; gravy, perfect with , mill the drippings; mashed potatoes made with half-and-half, sour cream, butter. Great eating.
Of course, the best part of Thanksgiving is having the family there and being thankful to live in a free country together. The food is one thing, the family the greatest part!
I think it is nice to stay at home and have a family tradition for the younger generation. I had mine in the woods on a picnic table this year.

Ay naku sis, the pictures and descriptions alone make me salivate :) I can imagine your table spread already for Thanksgiving!
I wish we celebrate Thanksgiving here so I can "attempt" to cook nice dishes for the whole family. Why attempt? Well, I don't have the knack in cooking. It's such an effort for me to actually prepare one meal...hahaha
We try to come home during Thanksgiving day this year after our vacation though we went home late but we still managed to cooked the traditional meal.
nice looking food!
YAY! I am so drooling over here just looking at all the sumptuous dishes you prepared, Rose. Perfect na pampatakam sa umaga ko. At di pa man din ako nakapagbreakfast! Hahaha!

Your Thanksgiving Day must have full of fun, the smiles are showing off to the pictures. Hehehe. You and your family has done a good job to celebrate it in your home abode. And I guess next year mauulit yan :)
The yummy foods made me hungry. Since wala namang Thanksgiving here sa Pinas. Each Christmas, almost ganyan din ang mga foods at our table and also a time for bonding time with family.
It looks like that you had a very "bongga" Thanksgiving! :) I love the desserts! ♥
wow so many yummy foods! i only prepared Ham, Salad, and pumpkin pie from scratch. i dont want to cook to much because hubby and i dont eat much. and the kids are quite picky. e
wow, sis, that looks like you're having a feast. belated happy thanksgiving! :) everything you prepared sounds so yummy to my ears! :)
we ate at a buffet restaurant, the line was so long and so I guess evidently, we are not the only family who can't finish a turkey on Thanksgiving day and finally decided to eat outside ;D
wow,I like all the food,lol! Love the salad and the pie! Sure is a feast!
Wow! Thanksgiving is indeed one of the most important feasts there!
