Thanksgiving Post...

I was over at crazymama's blog and I loved her Thanksgiving Survey...feel free to play along. Let me know if you did!

how do you do thanksgiving dinner?
Well, this year will be different but we usually eat between 2 or 3 at one of our parents' homes.

where do you go for thanksgiving? stay home? in-laws? travel?
We alternate between my dad's house and my mom's house (Allan's parents aren't into most holidays). But my mom has moved so for the past couple of years we have spent it at my dads home in northern Utah. This year we are having it at our house with my sister and my 2 nieces because Caleb has a soccer tournament on Friday and Saturday.

if you bring something what do you bring?
Whatever I'm told to bring!

what "makes" thanksgiving dinner for you? (if it's missing it's just not the same. )
Oh everything but I really have to have Cranberry Jello Salad and sweet potatoes and jellied cranberry sauce, YUMMY!

what grosses you out?
Allan eats the turkey heart


Gravy preference? brown? turkey? Homemade?
Homemade gravy is my favorite but Allan prefers that brown gravy crap that comes in a package!

Mashed Potatoes? from scratch? or instant?
Only homemade for me!

do you actually eat Yams?
Love them

what about cranberries?
Love the jellied ones

Pie? what is a "must have" at every Thanksgiving dessert table?
I hate pie but my hubby has to have pumpkin pie or he would die

Pies? from scratch? or store bought?
I buy them 'cause I'm not gonna make something that I don't eat, LOL

Whipped cream? from scratch ? cool whip? or from a can?
I buy either a can or cool whip.

MMMM....now doesn't this just make you want Thanksgiving to come faster?
