Well we had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I got the table set and then when guests began arriving never picked the camera up again so no pictures of the food! I could line up the leftovers but there are precious few of those too..I'm eating veggies today to make up for my disgusting lack of control yesterday! No shopping with the crowds for me today, I detest crowds, so today I am working on projects and Christmas decorating! Yay! I've already begun digging through the Christmas boxes and planning out the day. We wont get the tree until the first of December, but we have the dessert portion of a progressive dinner here next friday night so I want the house to sparkle:>) Come to think of it, maybe I should be eating vegetables all week in preparation!
All right, I confess, I am not just eating vegetables! What am I ? Superwoman?! I did intend to be a good girl and stick to my diet yesterday and today but the cornbread stuffing and gravy was calling my name and it would be rude not to answer wouldn't it? Well wouldn't it!?

  1. Only veggies today! What self control! I don't do the Black Friday shopping. There just has never been anything that I wanted or needed badly enough to get up that early and face those crowds!

  5. Pretty table!

    Wait, what? Veggies today? You mean pumpkin pie, right? Oh, I am so embarrassed. I had puff pancake for breakfast and leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, pie & ice cream for dinner. At least I skipped lunch, right?

    LOL!

    Happy decorating!

  10. Your table is beautiful! I love your candleabra - I collect yellow depression glass. I've never seen that piece. It works so well on your table. Perfect. Wish I lived close enough to share 'veggies' with you! I like your new header. Just right. ~Adrienne~

  15. Hi Kathy, I'm so sick of leftovers, even the stuffing! I swear, next year we're having Baked Ziti for Thanksgiving -- now there's some leftovers I can never tire of! :) Your table looks beautiful! Looking forward to seeing your Christmas decorations.
