Happy Birthday to Me!

It is my birthday today! I turn 40 today.

Thanksgiving Moving

Donley and I decided it would be best to move Thanksgiving to his house. So Donley will be making the Turkey, Gravy, and Mashed Potatoes. I think Leah will be providing her Pecan tarts, mmmmmm. I will bring a Pumpkin Pie, some Bread Pudding, and Stuffing. Nancy will make her Baked Mac & Cheese. Jessica is bringing her Sweet Potato Casserole and Squash Casserole. Dad and Martha are bringing Deviled Eggs and Martha's Wonderfully Delicious Egg Rolls.

Sounds like a great feast.

Chelsea's Birthday Party

We had Chelsea's birthday party yesterday. Just family. Dad, Martha, Donley, Leah, Oliver, Lily, and Jessica were all there. I made spaghetti and meatballs. It was a hit! I was worried about the meatballs. I thought I had left them in the oven too long ( yes, I do them in the oven ). Turns out they were still really juicy and tender. I just hate it when meatballs are big dense dry lumps of meat. The sauce was good too. I made it quick from canned tomatoes. The recipe follows.
