Just a little pause in the chaos to take a photo of the bird. I have a cookbook, Thanksgiving 101, that makes this whole, huge, production, much simpler, because it spells out, step-by-step how to do things, like make mash potatoes and gravy.
The platter under the turkey is Franciscan Ware, Desert Rose. This was my mother's platter, and we always used these dishes on holidays. I'm thankful for the memories I have of my mom, and all the things she did for us seven kids.
Thanksgiving is wonderful, but. . . . I sure am tired right now!

Ummm yeah I am going to need the name of that cookbook. This looks so yummy!
What a gorgeous Turkey!
Happy Thanksgiving.
The bird looks good! And how nice to remember your mom in an annual tradition!
Nice looking turkey, Angela! Don't you love using "tradition" dishes--I have a couple that I always use, just because of the tie-in to family.
