We had a nice Thanksgiving, although not one with traditional food. I am tired of force-feeding my kids turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy (I know, what kind of a kid doesn't like mashed potatoes and gravy?), and Paul and I aren't too crazy about turkey either, so we decided to have a ham. I had recently gotten a locally grown, grass raised ham, so I basted it with blackberry jam and mustard and let it cook. Boy it smelled good, and everyone seemed to like it. I also made asparagus, homemade rolls, sweet potatoes, cranberry jello salad, an apple/cheddar pie, and ramekins with hot chocolate cake in them. We had Joey's best friend over with his parents, and we all had a great time. Boy, do we have a lot to be thankful for!
