November 22, 2013

Last week I told you I was going to see a movie; it was FANTASTIC!!!!!  I saw About Time with some of my gal pals and it was fabulous.  The writing was cute and witty, the main characters were adorable and believable.  All in all...it was great.  I own hardly any movies, and I may have to add this to my collection in the future.  Clearly no requirement to see this on the big screen, but borrow it from the library (or me once I own it) when it comes out.

Can you believe this...Thanksgiving is less than a week away!  Wow!  We tried a new dinner recipe this week, but it didn't earn keeper status, but I do have a DIY pumpkin pie spice recipe that might come in handy during this holiday season!  It is convenient to have pumpkin pie spice on hand, but who wants to pay $4 or so for a specialty spice that you can likely put together from what is already in your spice cabinet?  I made this, used it in a pumpkin pie and in pumpkin squares and it worked well.

I've put a few links to some of our favorite Thanksgiving recipes below.  And if you want to help me out, let me know what are some of your favorite post-Thanksgiving recipes!

Happy cooking - especially if you are making and hosting the Thanksgiving feast!
