 Yum!  

I know doesn't look much like a turkey on the platter. LOL..
Another update!! Phyllis had to take Karter to the doctor yesterday with right side abdominal pain. He has appendicitis and is to go to surgery, well probably there now at 7:03 A.M. 11/23/2022. He spent the night in the hospital. Keep us in your prayers. Especially Karter. UPDATE: Karter made it home on Wednesday. We went to see him on Thanksgiving Day. He is sore and having a little pain on movement, cough or laugh. A month of not being able to do anything will be hard but he is looking forward to the month's end and Christmas with some new toys.

Your Thanksgiving dinner sounds yummy ! Turkey baked, grilled or fried is always tasty. Sorry to hear that Karter was unwell. (Though I don't know him) My prayers are for his speedy recovery !

Valsa, Thanks for the kind review. We went to see Karter on Sunday because our daughter prepared Thanksgiving dinner for us then. He was much better. He will have to take it easy for a month which will be over just before Christmas. He is a very active, alive and busy little boy on the verge of entering that Jr. High age. Sara
