Thanksgiving Flashback


If you would have come to my parents' house for Thanksgiving in the 1970's or 1980's, here's what you would have eaten:

Turkey (sliced by my Dad with the electric knife)
Cornbread Dressing (very dry)
Giblet Gravy (And there WERE giblets in it)
Mashed Potatoes
Candied Yams
Waldorf Salad (never did like it; still don't)
Cranberry Sauce (Jellied, from a can)
Rolls (Fleishman's Margarine on top)
Fried Apple Pies (little turnovers with icing, made by my mother--very delicious)
White Sheet Cake from bakery (We always celebrated my niece's birthday)
Iced Tea

Happy Thanksgiving, My Friends!
