Sweet Potato Casserole and Sweet Giveaways

I’m late and late, for a very important date…..and other such chatter.

I was supposed to do my “Smell Good Give-Away on Monday but the day just passed me by in a whirlwind of activity. Today has been no different and tomorrow promises to be FULL 🙂 but I knew I would be in trouble with some sweet friends if I let one more day pass by before announcing a winner.

I have spent the morning cooking and preparing my home for tomorrow’s 20 family members and I have loved every minute of it. I truly enjoy Thanksgiving Day preparations. I love chopping and peeling and boiling and even cleaning. I love how my husband and daughter hang around the kitchen more than usual and help with some of the above 🙂

I know you may be up to your eyeballs in recipes by this time but I thought I would share one of my favorite Thanksgiving Day recipes just in case you need one more idea.

This one was passed down to me by my husband’s Mom. We have missed her so much for 10 Thanksgivings now. Her memory returns more often than just on Thanksgiving of course, but I can almost feel her in the room when I take this recipe out of the box each year in her honor. I always cook my casseroles the day before and just heat them up on T-day in order to save space in the oven. My kitchen smells so good right now!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is my 35 plus year old recipe card typed on her very own typewriter just for me and no other!! I have treasured it for many years. I pray that you Thanksgiving Day is filled with laughter; friends and family and lots of Thanksgiving and Praise!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for me—

I always thank God for you every time I remember you. In all my prayers for you all, I always pray with JOY because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being CONFIDENT of this, that HE who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day Christ Jesus.

Philippians 1:3-6

AND—DRUM ROLL, Please 🙂
