Thankful For It All

 

Vince and Sheena came, but it was awkward as we think they were fighting. They didn’t hide it very well. They’re heading towards a break up. Vince can’t communicate, even when Sheena gives him an opening.

But dinner was delicious, and I made my kickass sweet potatos! All Thanksgiving pictures were in black and white this year, I thought it was artistic. The only picture I did in color was a picture of the turkey. Talk about perfect!

Sauteeing stuffing greens

 

 

My scummydelicious yams being prepared

I use brown sugar to light coat the yams, then layer marshmallows on top, add another drained can and repeat step one and two. Then I sprinkle cinnamon on top of all that. Then you mix 1 cup brown sugar and one stick butter in a heating pan, and mix in some ground ginger( to taste). Add that on top of the yams and marshmallows, and add another healthy layer of mashmallows on top. cook at 350 for 30 minutes, remove, and add another layer of marshmallows. Pop back in the oven for another 10 minutes, and wahlaa, tasty yams!

 

Stuffing at the finish

OMG I must say when I saw the pan of veggies on the stove before I even read the caption I was thinking, “Hmmmm, stuffing veggies??” Lol yeah I had a pan of that going at about 11am this morning except that I also put sausage in my stuff.

RYN: I should probably clear that up. He means her miscarriage of the first one, the FAS child they were so happy about. As far as I know she is still pregnant.
