Not a traditional thanksgiving
{the gift that I made for the hostesses}
This year wasn\’t a traditional Thanksgiving. I went to a friends house where he made an injected deep fried turkey, and she made a couple of side dishes. It wasn\’t the usual Thanksgiving that I am use to, but it was a lot of fun.

Yum, I think I'm still in a food coma from my own Thanksgiving feast! I've never had deep fried turkey, but I'm sure it's delicious. Just like everything else deep fried in this world! XOhttp://tryitonmegirl.blogspot.com/

Sometimes non-traditional is the best though. It can be fun to step outside of the norm.

I need to learn how to make my bow like that for my tree!! I love them when the rest of the ribbon dangles down to the bottom…although, my cat may ruin it if I decorate my tree that way.

It all looks yummy and you look like you had some great portion control going on. :)in regards to your WW question…the new calculation involves four things…carbs, total fat, protein, and fiber…I heard the formula is secretly guarded or something…lol Etools is allowing you to calculate starting today. I haven't gotten any of the written material yet, as my weekly meeting is tomorrow!
