Well we are getting ready for thanksgiving yea me. I know you all do not do Thanksgiving. Lots of cooking on my part. Turkey, mashed potatoes , gravy, stuffing , veggies , pasta salad, candied yams, rolls, pumpkin pie , chocolate pie, a desert I call renae which has pudding-ice cream- walnuts - whipped topping- a crumb layer. Eat Eat Eat lol no wonder their are so many over weight people here lol as myself when I have anxiety I don't do well keeping weight on. Maybe I will post some pictures xxxx Mimi
