I've been staying with my mother while I've been trying to get back into the work-force and get myself into a situation where I can establish an apartment for myself and my husband (who was in Missouri with a student that was about to test out for his CDL), so I had dinner here with her and my brother, and my grandmother came over as well. And we had:
Roast turkey
Apple/onion stuffing/dressing
Mashed potatoes
Butternut squash
Corn nibblets roasted in the oven
Steamed broccoli
Pearled onions
Cornbread
A few little bowls of random nibble things (cherry tomatoes and baby mozzeralla balls, olives, pickled watermelon rinds, etc)
Cranberry sauce
For drinks, we had a jug of cider... which my brother drank most of before dinner, so I only got a sip.
Dessert, we went to my aunt's house to meet up with the rest of the family. And we had options of:
Apple pie (two types, needed one that had gluten-free crust cause Celiac's)
Carrot cake ('secret recipe' type)
Cherry pie
Cheesecake (homemade vanilla bean with gluten-free chocolate cookie crust, with option of chocolate ganache or raspberry sauce topping)
Chocolate cream pie
Some concoction that my aunt called "poor man's cannoli"... I think it was cannoli cream in sugar cones. And pumpkin flavored. I did not feel safe to try.
