Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

I went easy on the Thanksgiving spread this year. (Okay, I was lazy and couldn't be bothered doing much except the bare necessities.)

Looks delicious! I'm impressed that you did so much - it's really easy to feel like it's not worth the effort when it's just for yourself - but you deserve yummy turkey!

Thank you. I'm already planning on what to do with the leftovers.

Turkey tetrazzini is on the menu (mix together cooked pasta, canned cream of mushroom soup, frozen peas, diced turkey and shredded cheddar topping, then bake). I have 2 servings of cooked large pasta shells in the fridge which will make it all even easier. :)

The last few years (prior to last year) my friend G would make this wild rice dish for Thanksgiving - and I would get some leftovers to bring home. Added with chicken stock, veggies, and some chicken or turkey - it made a MOST delicious soup!

This year I'm not sure if we will do Thanksgiving or not, and if we do, G won't be there, since he and T are split - so I am going to have to figure out some other chicken and wild rice soup recipe :D

That sounds like a delicious dish.

It's sad to lose the people that were part of our happy extended family gatherings but it makes the memories that much sweeter.

It's still looks very yum, though!

Hey - that looks delicious! And let's be thankful that we can opt for shortcuts when we want to.

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Thank you. The turkey's been in my freezer for a while. :)
