Returned to My Ol' Hometown
for the
Big Feast
I Somehow Managed to Talk My Younger Sister and Spouse
into Doing a Thanksgiving Turkey Trot 5K.
It was my Sister's First Time Running that Far,
and She Worked Hard for Every Mile,
and Didn't Stop!
I was SOoo Proud of Her!
While we were Out
Getting Our Run On,
My Mom Kept the Household Busy
Making
TURKEYS!
Other T-Day Favorites:
Pie
Gingerbread House Crafting
And a
Turkey Bowl
We Spent the Rest of the Weekend
at Black Friday Sales,
Visiting,
and
Watching Chick Flicks.
We Took My Mom to See
For Her Birthday!
And She Spoiled Us with a Breakfast of
Danish Ableskiver
[aka Pancake Balls]
Oh,
and What Family Gathering is Complete
without a
Ta-Da!

Hi! Would your mom share her recipe for Danish Ableskivers? They looked sooo yummy! I remember having them at my Grandma's when I was young! I'd love to carry on this Danish tradition with my kids and grandkids!
kt, I bought the Lodge cast iron ableskiver pan and the Lodge cast iron cooking cook book (it has a pale green boarder, its about 8"x5"), I use the recipe on the left side in the book. You can use (dare i tell?) Krusteez pancake mix,too. Please carry on the Danish tradition! J's mom
Thank you for all the sweet memories of the day. I have so much to be grateful for...my heart overflows.
The day before Thanksgiving, the 4 granddaughters that live locally, aged 10-14, came and made the pies: pumpkin, pecan, apple, cherry, and chocolate; made the pastry from scratch! Worked on Personal Progress and family fun! It will be a tradition.
Monogramed plastic cup line up!! You crack me up! We totally have the same thing! Can't be wasting paper cups, now can we?
Does Burley have a Turkey Trot these days?
