Holiday

[Huge Hannah]

I hate to cook and my husband like to so he made ALL of our Thanksgiving dinner--wouldn't allow me in the kitchen.

It was delicious!

We usually go with a Butterball turkey but there were none to be had--in under 20 lbs., which is was too much for our family--so he bought a Morningstar fresh turkey. I once tried to make a fresh turkey and it was came out just dreadful so I was a little apprehensive. I don't know he did it but it the Morningstar bird came out just right: the white meat wasn't all dried out and the dark meat was juicy and delicious. About the only thing I cooked was the cranberry sauce and it's pretty hard to ruin that (although I've managed to, once or twice )

The mashed potatoes were perfect, the cornbread was just right, and even the stuffing was perfect! Please pardon my bragging but it I just can't help it. I'm so proud of my DH and still enjoyng yesterrday's meal--which also made for heavenly leftovers today! (Sometimes I think the leftovers are the best part of Thanksgiving.)

Mine didn't know how to turn the stove on............

Sounds like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  How nice that your husband likes to cook!

[Love my grandkids]

The leftovers are always better the second day!

I took my leftover butternut squash, added chicken broth, blended it up and had delicious soup.

LOL, is that why you call yourself @Huge Hannah ?

[Still Raining]

He is a keeper.  Wonderful that you both had a great meal.

@Huge Hannah  Nice !! JMO, but I think we all enjoy the leftovers because we are so blooming tired after all day preparation on the actual day, that we just can't enjoy the meal. I remember those days of a house full of people and after cooking all day, I barely ate. Too tired, so I just enjoyed the family.

I wish mine knew how to boil water.  I do worry about him if I go first and he's left alone.  He's gonna starve within a matter of days.
