Just Desserts

I'm still waddling my way around after a fantastic Thanksgiving. What were you thankful for? I was thankful for the stuffing. Every year we get together with friends and have a feast. It's a lot of fun. This year I made my usual mashed potatoes. The potatoes sat in the crock pot (to keep warm) for too long and turned to starch. People said they tasted fine. They're all liars. I thought they were horrible and it almost put a damper on my meal but the stuffing made up for it.

I also made three desserts. Yeah, that's right, I said three. Here is a picture of one of them:










It's a spice cake with cream cheese frosting. Those of you who know me know I don't eat most white foods so, as expected, I didn't eat this. People said it was delicious. I totally believe them. I even made the toffee!

I'm getting ready to send out Christmas cards. Don't get excited, you won't be recieving one. I usually don't send them to anyone but this year I decided to send them to the last remaining relatives I have and believe me, there aren't a lot.

I accidently told Shana that I would go Christmas shopping with her when she comes back for winter break. WHAT WAS I THINKING! I must have been drinking. Oh well, I'm sure we'll have fun. If I survive the trip and I'm not put in jail for getting into a fight I'll let you know how it goes.

The potatoes did taste good - but they clumped in a funny fashion. :) Oh well - your desserts were fabulous but I think my favorite was the Pumpkin Chiffon Pie - mmmMMmm! And yes you may think yourself crazy now, but we are going to have fun shopping because you will be with ME - so get excited! :)
