Brat!! :-)

And um, broccoli salad usually has bacon in it, so you can keep it!

I love my healthy stuff, but dang, a good pumpkin pie with lightly spiced whipped cream... I could dive in face first! :-)

Oh and I'm making:

Candied yams (with oranges)
Spiced cranberry sauce
Upside down pumpkin pie
Hors d'oeurves*

Hors d'oeurves are probably going to be stuffed celery sticks, dates stuff with brie, carrot sticks with Mexican onion dip, cheese board/crackers, relish tray (pickles, pickled veggies, olives), and so on. Light 'n easy.

Sorry, ladies, but my mom's pumpkin pie recipe is the best. And her pecan pie, which is what I am usually requested to bring, but this year they want something different. Peach Cobbler. Go figure and fine by me cause its so damn easy. LOL

Oh, Annie, I didn't even pay a bit of attention to your link above my post up there or I wouldn't have posted the Hello Dolly recipe! Oh well, yes, GMTA! LOL

Well, my aunt doesn't eat pork, so she asked me if I would make it with no bacon. I told her to pick it out.

yes, i am thinking of telling her it's veggie bacon, since she swears the taste is the same. That woman, i swear, she is hell bent on ruining TG. She asks that no one bring any wine to her house to have with dinner because she doesn't want her boys to be around alcohol. (they are 14 and 17)

The evil side of me is already thinking of wonderful cocktails that i will make when we do Christmas at Grandma's this year!

Dork! You can't "pick it out"!!! And believe me, she'll know. I can spot someone trying to fake me out in about 2 seconds flat!

Now spiked punch or cider, on the other hand... :-)

Costa, this woman, oy, she's something else. It's control. She wants everyone to come to her house, bring all the food and decor and she just gets to host and do nothing. plus she lives about an hour away and everyone else lives here. The only reason we agreed to it is because we can go, eat and LEAVE her to clean up the mess. I would break my arm to not have to go to this woman's house. I'll bet she wants me to put Carob instead of chocolate in my pie. WTFT? She made carob brownies once that my dog wouldn't eat. It's just control and dictating every aspect of everyone Holiday.

The whole wine thing gets me because I've seen her drink a glass of wine at my Grandma's and her husband spent an hour at the bar before dinner one night. She also asked that we all try to make everything lo-cal or fat free.

I might just make a HAM to take as well, lol.

Did I mention she says she doesn't know how to cook or decorate the tables/set the tables and could we come early and do it for her? So I will be putting bacon in the broccoli salad and chocolate in the pies and no, TG is not a lo-cal day.

how is one married for 20+ years, have two children and can't set a table or know how to cook?

LOL! You should put extra fat in everything then, and tell her it's all no fat! :-)

And in that case, put real bacon in your broccoli!!!

All this back and forth about this person or that persons pie being the best really needs to end and I have just the solution.......

Each person bake one and send it to me and I will determine which is the best...
