We celebrated Thanksgiving with the family this past Sunday. I don't care for turkey, so I made a couple of
pork roasts instead.
 |
| Brown sugar and garlic pork loin |
For side dishes, I had
butternut squash and
sweet potatoes from our garden. I found recipes on Pinterest to make lighter, more healthy dishes instead of lots of sugar. Both turned out yummy.

For an appetizer, I made a
turkey cheeseball. I should say, I made the cheeseball and my daughter-in-law Kate made it into a turkey. I think ours turned out really close.

I had lots of help from my husband, son and daughter-in-law Emily, the night before and that morning, getting everything together. Family also supplied some Polish sausage, a pumpkin carrot can, sweet potato pie, turkey cookies and wine. I believe everyone enjoyed the food and company. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family.

I also embroidered napkins using a design from Embroidery Library. I will write more about that process next week.
Happy Thanksgiving
