Mr. P and the kids just pulled out of the driveway with the minivan loaded down with our contribution to the Thanksgiving feast. He will be back for me momentarily so I must type quick and hop into the shower.
The family we spend our Thanksgiving and Easter with is enormous. We were once all Episcopalians and now magically we are Catholics - no time for that story except to say that natural family planning has been kind to us and there will be more than 15 children racing around the home. So needless to say as most are off nursing, bottles and baby food, we women needed to prepare more than the 25 Lb turkey this year. I decided to make 6 lbs of roasted smoked kielbasa with all of the proper fixings. As my yankee mother said this morning, "How different."
Different? Yes. Delicious? Absolutely.
Happy Thanksgiving.
The P's.
Your mom sounds real sweet.
