Another pretty decent sleep last night slowly getting rested up, Energy levels still down but feeling a bit better each day. Got some cereal and coffee consumed , computing done , At 7 am it was 38F outside but sunny and less wind than yesterday, Making the day seem much nicer.Then I set to work making a double batch of Puff Pastry Sausage rolls. for that recipe you can click HERE or my recipe blog top right side bar.
Back home by 11:30 then soon time to head inside, I usually help a bit with the food prep but not this year, kinda feel lost, so relaxed chatting with a few relatives watching the activity and they just keep arriving. By 1PM all 27 of them are here and with the food set out we all began the feast.

Your FIRST Thanksgiving feast looks amazing! Bet it beats the hospital food :) With 27 there did you get all the names right?
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving #1 !!!
Thanks Jeff,
DeleteIt was an amazing feast. I know the names of all the cousins, nieces and nephews, but not all the grands only see them about once a year.
Looks like everyone was enjoying the festivities.
ReplyDeleteHoping your treatments will continue to make you feel better.
Be Safe and Enjoy Thanksgiving #2.
It's about time.
We always have a great time when we get together and so much good food as well. I will slowly feel better I hope.
DeleteNow to rest up for aa feast tomorrow.
Enjoy yours as well.
Your in my hometown George. Nice that you got out for a drive around town to see the sights. Glad to see you are feeling better than a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteYes this is your hometown and always enjoy it here, we might be staying here for quite a while.
DeleteThanks Al much better than a few days ago still have a ways to go yet.
Happy Thanksgiving! Lots to be thankful for!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, we sure do have a lot to be thankful for.
DeleteWhat a neat kitchen counter with the stove top built in. Perfect for entertaining. That was a lot of food and so many people. Time to take it easy and take care of yourself as needed. Sleep well tonight.
ReplyDeleteThe kitchen counter is really nice , we have spent many hours around it over the years.
DeleteLotta food to feed a lottapeople and it was all wonderful. Taking is easy now and hope for a good sleep tonight.
I'm glad your appetite is good because I think it is good medicine for you. Rest is, too. We live in Texas, thousands of miles from you but please know our prayers for you are still close to our heart. Take care!
ReplyDeleteThanks gumo for the prayers and kind thoughts. I did eat some but not a lot and resting got lotsa that as well.
DeleteSounds like a wonderful celebration and you get to do it all over tomorrow. Time with family always special. I wondered how you were going to get by not being part of the cooking crew then I saw you did not totally miss out. Great picture of the backyard with the colors in the distance fall is such a beautiful time of year. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving to you and Suzie!
ReplyDeleteThanks you Tom and Deb I did manage to get by and not get in the way. The fa;; colors are common out nicely now, think we will be seeing a lot more of them this year.
DeleteWOW nice feast. Glad you enjoyed and then new when it was time to go take a rest. May tomorrow be as merry and as great as it was today. Happy Thanksgiving to you and Suzie
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo it was a wonderful feast, looking forward to my side of the family celebrations today.
DeleteLooks like a great feast and good time by all, George. Enjoy the time with your family on Monday. Glad Suzie let you drive the car, take care. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteDitto to what Bill said above. Slowly but surely. Nice to see the meal got prepared and you were able to relax. Lots of things to be thankful for and family gatherings are one of them!
DeleteThanks guys it was a wonderful feast and now to do it all over again today more fun family time. It was nice to go for a cruise about town may even try a bit today as well. Bill would be nice of you to drop by if you have time while in town this week, give us a call not sure what Doctors plans are , one day at a time.
DeleteHaving such a spread of yummy food looking at you I can imagine that it would be very difficult to sample just a bit and not overload your plate. You did great, I think. Don't blame you for getting tired with so many people to socialize with. Happy Thanksgiving to you and Suzie.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlene so much good food and no real appetite, so I did get to enjoy so of the tasty offerings and were oh too good. Being tired to start and so much loud noise wore me out quickly , hope I can do better today.
DeleteLooks like a real feast and always good when family can get together.
ReplyDeleteYes Larry it sure was a feast and fun family time. More today.
DeleteWhat a great family gathering! Nice that they could all come and visit. Wow that's a lot of food! Your sausage puffs looks yummy and so easy to make, I will have to put it on our Thanksgiving list! Glad you left when you got tired and the noise got to you. Hopefully you can rest some this am before the next celebration! Happy Thanksgiving to you both!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great gathering and Suzie's family all live locally. That sausage rolls are wonderful and easy to make as well. I am feeling a bit better today. My family has a distance to travel and glad that they can all come here as well. Looking forward to another great day with the kids and grands.
DeleteThanks for the Thanks giving wishes.
Glad to see you had a great time but didn't push yourself too much. Rest up and get stronger, the Southwest awaits. ;c)
ReplyDeleteI am Resting but I do think the southwest is out of the question this year, Think it will be one cold snowy winter here in Ontario this year brrr,,,,
DeleteSuzie has a big family! Everything looks delicious wish it was possible to pass me a plate through the computer screen.
ReplyDeleteYou even made sausage puffs. Glad you were able to retreat to your home for peace, quiet, and a little nap.
Thinking about you both and sending nothing but positive energy your way.
Yes it is a large Family and not even everyone was here, The food was excellent too.
DeleteIt was nice to come home and relax when I wore out. The sausage puffs are always a hit and so easy to make.
Thanks for the positive energy.
