Happy Thanksgiving Everyone...Memories, a Family Favorite Recipe, Fashion, Decor & More!!!

I loved Thanksgiving when I was young, that meant the excitement of going to my Ma'Ma's house and time with my cousins. Sitting at the kids table together, playing board games, decorating our Ma-Ma's tree and eating her amazing I mean amazing home cooked Thanksgiving dinner that my Momma and Aunts helped with as well. It was always so so good. I still remember the taste of her Million Dollar Pound Cake, it melted in my mouth! Oh how I wish I could go back.





And now, the meaning of Thanksgiving is so much more! I still love gathering with family, but now at Daddy and Momma's farmhouse. There is a warmth of feelings when you can be with family... love, joy, and a feeling of peace that is indescribable and so wonderful too! We do all the preparing, cooking, and then gather around the table holding hands and saying grace. Thanksgiving is not just about the food for me, yes it is good, but for me, it is time that I am thankful that we can hold onto one another, encourage one another, share with one another, love one another, and see those wonderful faces across the table, and that is what I am so thankful for!


We gather not just because that is what you do at Thanksgiving, but beacuse that is what God designed our hearts to do. As it says in Matthew 18:20... When two or more are gathered in HIS name, God is there in the midst of them. That is Amazing!!! So I hope you all can gather together and show love and feel love with others this Thanksgiving.



I want to thank you all for visiting, commenting, and supporting my blog here and on social media, it means so much! I pray you all can be family and friends and share time with one another. Whatever you do, be sure to take time with family, share some joy this Christmas, and enjoy God’s blessings this holiday season! I am so grateful, thankful, and blessed to have you all. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box

1/3 cup butter

1/3 cup chopped onion

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 3/4 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup milk

2 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken or turkey

2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Prepare pie crusts as directed on the box for Two-Crust Pie using a 9-inch glass pie pan.

2. In a 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper until well blended. Gradually stir in broth and milk, cooking and stirring until bubbly and thickened.

3. Stir in chicken and mixed vegetables. Remove from heat. Spoon chicken mixture into crust-lined pan. Top with second crust; seal edge and flute. Cut slits in several places in top crust.
