Bonnie, that was me, Patty. I forgot the cinnamon and nutmeg in the first post, so don't forget those. It's good without them, but just alittle adds some good flavor. I hope you like it!

LAP -- Aren't those the best sandwiches! YUM...can't wait for the leftovers.

Claire-M -- we do an eggnog breadpudding for either breakfast or desert that is really good. You'll need a loaf of white bread torn into small pieces, 1 quart of warm eggnog (or you can use milk instead if you don't like eggnog), 2 cups of sugar, 2 tablespoons of vanilla, 3 tablespoons of butter, 1 cup of raisins. In a big  bowl pour the eggnog/milk over the bread. In another bowl mix all other ingredients together (except the butter). Pour the egg mixture over the bread and mix. Melt the butter and pour into a 9 x 13 pan. Pour the bread mixture over the butter and bake at 325 degrees for about 40 minutes or until firm.

After reading the recipe over again, I forgot to mention that you can add cinnamon (teaspoon) and/or nutmeg (just a pinch) as well. Geesh, good thing I have these things memorized when I make them!

Lovely idea Claire. My family is pure tradition, family tradition.

turkey, mashed potatos (my son always mashes), mashed sweet potato casserole with marshmallows on top, green bean casserole, cranberry jelly and cranberry sauce, my husband's Texas cornbread dressing, Grandmother's stuffing balls in a pan, Grandmother's cream giblet gravy, 4-cup fruit salad, stuffed celery, and pies: pecan, mince and Mother's bourbon pumpkin.
Yes, we eat some of everything, and everybody takes some home. The only thing I follow a recipe for is pecan pie. Everything else is from memory and instinct.

Please Julie, can you share with us any of those great recipies from your cookbook or your memory.  If I was able to travel I wish I was invited to your festivities.  Ask Mama and GrandMama for them to share with us.

You done good!

I'm not cooking this year - the kids are. So glad they are all grown up! I used to love cooking Thanksgiving dinner. The best part is always the leftovers. My recipe for a good sandwich the next day.....

2 slices of homemade white bread; slather on Miracle Whip to each slice. Add thinly sliced turkey, preferably white meat. Top turkey with bread stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy (all straight out of the fridge), and jellied cranberry sauce. Mmmmmm Good!

 Hi Claire,

This is my grandmother's recipe for Spoon Bread. It is a sweet corn souffle - ish dish. I used to own and operate a B & B and Miss Alma's Spoon Bread was always the biggest hit on the table.

Miss Alma's Spoon Bread

2 cups whole milk                     2 eggs                                                                                 

1/2 cup yellow corn meal          4 TB butter

1/4 cup sugar                             1/4 teas. baking powder

1/2 teas. salt

 

Heat cornmeal and milk in a thick sauce pan, stirring constantly until very thick. (Very thick means you can see the bottom of the pan when stirring - be careful to stir from bottom as it will stick and burn easily.) Add the rest of ingredients and mix well. Pour into a well greased casserole and back at 350 until done or slightly browned on top. It will jiggle a little. It will rise beautifully but promptly fall when removed from the oven.

Claire, if you prepare this for Turkey Day you will be named the Miss Drumstick or something. " src="/emoticons/emotion-59.gif">
