Thanksgiving was Thursday but Today was Turkey!

As usual we headed to the school gym for the community feast. The feast was set for 4 pm and I bet there were about 80 folks down there.
Holly and I had signed up to cook a turkey and make mashed potatoes so the morning was spent in the kitchen! Other items for feasting on included lots of turkey, hams, potato salad, stuffing, rolls, corn, black olives, cranberry sauce and all sorts of pies and cakes to go along with the ice cream. It was all delicious.
So we took a break and today we had our household turkey. Denise is in Anchorage and had to work so she could not be at home. Holly spent the a good part of the day in the kitchen working along - Becca stepped in and made the mashed potatoes. We tried a new dish today - Cranberry Jello Salad (courtesy of Virginia Degnan), and it was a hit!
We had a dinner guest with us, Morgan Edmundson.
The food was delicious!
